You think? I don't know-what about all those Greg Lemond jokes?

I said some, but not in the same league that Lemond is in. You have a great point though....

Who cares? He's enjoying life unlike some people.

Does this put him in the same division as Anna Nicole Smith?

I must be missing something. I don't see any shots of Lance where you can see anything but his face and shoulders. He looks older ... duh.

The "science" on any matter can never be settled until every possible variable is taken into account.

Good Lord, the man was previously a death-headed wraith. Now he looks human. And cuter!

long time ago....there was a thread comparing his position on his new trek to his old cervelo. It was pretty funny.

That's major news, when did it happen? I'm not on Velonews that often but I'm always on here, it must have got lost between a Zipp Wheel or Cervelo thread....

Just after Levi HAHA

I saw photos of him at yesterday's DC camp in Solvang and he looked pretty lean, not TDF lean, but did not look any bigger that the other riders. In fact, Basso looked to have put on some weight.

I read something where Eddy was shown a picture of himself back in his racing days and he was quoted as saying something like, "God, I can't believe I was ever that skinny."

My guess is it doesn't take much to bulk up after eating like a supermodel for years.

I've been hanging out here too much lately ... I was trying to figure out how Lance gained serious local bike shops (lbs)!!!

;-)

He's starting to look a lot like LeMond. . .

who is that little guy in that picture of the paceline?

Luke Armstrong! Can you believe it? They grow up so fast.

Haha.. Now that's funny!

Does this put him in the same division as Anna Nicole Smith?

No, he's not that bad. More like Tyra Banks.

hahaha...but Tyra is fast approaching ANS.

Luke Armstrong (12-Oct.- 1999) is only seven years old. That boy is older than 7.
