I don’t care what you have to say about Lance. I don’t care if you think he doped. I don’t care if you think he’s got an attitude. I don’t even care if you think he’s a god, or that he’s changed cycling forever.

I care what he’s doing right now, and today that was riding for the late Margaret Creek and her husband Todd. Todd wrote to Livestrong to tell of his wife’s battle with Leukemia, and how she died after they struggled against the disease, and that’s who Lance had in his thoughts on Day 6.

And when I get on my bike in a little while for my daily ride, I’m going to be thinking of Margaret and Todd too.

Great Point David,

I too will be thinking of them when I go out mt. biking this evening.

Thanks,

Matt

I was feeling it for them in that rain. I’ve ridden and raced in my share of rain and it is very unpleasant. Coming into town with all those painted lines, they knew it was a any moment a crash. Something deeper motivates these guys be it to escape their depressed small town or to beat cancer.
