    if it's Jan vs Basso, and we know Lance is better than both, then
    that's
    a virtual win for Lance. How many virtual wins does LeMond have, is it
    3??
    As Lance kept winning, LeMond's number kept getting bigger.

    Virtual win?
    What are you blabbering on about?

    How about a virtual fall off and break your leg during stage 2?

    It's so sweet when a novice ventures into a classic rbr trope. It's sort
    of like watching "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead."

    The best answer on virtual Tour wins comes from Lance Armstrong, who was
    asked how many TdFs he would have won if he hadn't had cancer: his
    answer was zero.

    All his wins are virtual. It's good to have this cleared up.

    Close, but not quite.

    It means that his 1999-2005 results in the tour amount to seven virtual
    failures, as in "IF he hadn't had cancer, he would have lost the
    1999-2005 tours" - to parallel Lemond's "IF I hadn't been ordered to
    hold back on that Pyrenean stage, I would have won the 1985 tour"
    virtual win.

    Let's get our goofiness correct, now.
