Damn good points. He could have been training with the latest offering from Columbia, makers of the lead 10-speed, or so it seemed when I was a kid.

No, you posted a pic of GEDDY. Maybe a pic of J. Paul Getty would have been better :-)

On last years Tour(or the year before), there was a pic of one of fans on horseback, with a huge flag - I don't recall if it was the Texan flag and/or the American. That was an awesome pic too.

I'm no expert but I don't think Lance Armstrong wears a full-face helmet, nor does he attach a cargo rack to the rear of his titanium racing bike I dunno, you sound pretty knowledgable to me.
Welcome to FR and great screen name, if it's in reference to the Beatles that is. =)

Here is the caption, minus the image, as it will probably be pulled shortly...
"After seven consecutive wins in the "Tour de Full Retreat and backstabbing Nation", the Frogs demand that Lance Armstrong be forced to ride with his Country's flag in order for the competition to have a fair chance at winning.
Here we see Lance 2+ hours ahead heading towards the Finish.
Next year, the Frogs vow to make him use a bigger flag!"
