[QUOTE=Grog]I sincerely hope he stays at home next year. He is an amazing TdF racer and his mono-race approach could certainly get him another win, but it is time for him to let the young ones take the stage and the stages too. There has been, for extremely good reasons, a lot of attention on him in the past, he's spent a long time in the spotlight (and he will spend more). Now it should be time to discover new riders, Americans and others too. This will be good for renewing the sport.

Grog you couldnt have said it better. I think Lance is great but I look forward to seeing other riders shine.
