Yeah, it has to be Lance again but this may be the last one. The big

Like Indurain. Everyone thought he was going to win a 6th TdF, and they
had even set up the route for him so as to run part way through Spain,
almost as a tribute, or so I've read. He seemed invincible. But as we
know, he came completely apart, wound up in 10th place, and retired from
the sport that year. Right now, I'm betting that Lance will avoid that
fate, and go on to win 6 Tours, and then retire. But who knows? It's
got to take its toll, physically, mentally, and personally.
