Lance Armstrong said, "I'm finished."
``Vive le Tour, forever,'' Lance said in his parting speech.
``I'm sorry for you. I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles. But this is a hell
of a race,'' he said. ``You should believe in these athletes, and you should
believe in these people. I'll be a fan of the Tour de France for as long as I
live. And there are no secrets -- this is a hard sporting event and hard work
wins it.''
``I need a period of quiet and
peace and privacy,'' he said. ``I've had an unbelievable career. There's no
reason to continue. I don't need more.''

"Lance, You're My Hero!" We're sure that many people say the
same words.
