Even when everyone was saying in past years that Lance was a foregone conclusion I would think "Yeah, but he still has to *ride* it"
So it still is - they will all have to ride it; km after km,day after day till Paris

It's still the most amazing thing
and the best man will still win

and I will still say
"I've been there"
to the kids 100 times at least
