I hate to see France in a FR headline (even if it's deliberately mispelled). Just call it the Tour de Lance and be done with it. ;^)

Even the French don't spell "France" with an "s."

Just showing my disrespect there, Junior.

2nd Stage is over- ended with a huge sprint by the peleton. Zabriskie has overall (cum) lead and will wear the yellow jersey in stage 3, Armstrong 2nd in race overall. Stage winner was 1. Boonen followed by 2. Hushovd and
3. McEwen.

Armstrong can be said to be the best tour rider ever, however since he hasnt won any of the classics, he isnt even in the top three in my opinion.
