ROTTERDAM, Netherlands - The Tour de France gets under way Saturday and Lance Armstrong says he doesnt expect to win the 5.5-mile prologue of what will be his last ride in cyclings premier event.
The short and mainly flat stage through the Dutch port of Rotterdams city center doesnt feature major problems, but Armstrong has recently struggled in the discipline. He used to dominate his rivals in time trials during his heyday.
Last year, his failure in the Annecy time trial hampered his chances in his comeback attempt to win the Tour for the eighth time. Armstrong eventually finished third.
