It mostly explains why he doesn't have the time to ride in
the Giro and the Vuelta. First he has to spend weeks to make
these commercials, and then he probably has to take the time
to count his 100$ bills.

The wonders of digital special effects. The city scene was
filmed in San Francisco (spot the cable cars?) and I know
one of the riders involved in the shoot. Lance wasn't there.

Dear Richard,

Does this mean that if WalMart offers enough money, we might
be seeing Lance leading the pack in the Tour, apparently on
a Fury RoadMaster?

I liked the stampeding buffalos. The ones that I pedal past
at the zoo every day just stare.There's a herd a bit further
out than I usually ride. When I drive out and take my dogs
over to the fence, the huge beasts just drift slowly away
without any dust or thundering hoofbeats.

I suppose that someone will tell me that Lance was
superimposed on the buffalo scene, too.

I'm getting the name of that kid at the end of the ad.
Any 8-year-old who can ride a BMX onto Lance's wheel
needs an agent.

Just built a damn fast BMX,

USAToday.com sez, "Crow has not scheduled a new album or
tour this year, so she'll be a visitor to Armstrong's Tour."

Would this be unusual if he did?

Why? You may be right -- I'm just asking because I don't
follow celebrity gossip and have no idea whether she is
considered a good influence on him or not.

We'll see, Peter. At any rate, she apparently will be there.
She won the LAF auction for:

... special access at the Tour de France. The winner
will be invited to ride in the team follow car and
attend the morning meeting on the team bus.

I'm not ready, from anything I've seen or heard, to write
him off. I think last year was a wakeup call to him and I
think he realizes this.

One would hope she rang her bar bell to announce her
presence.
