From letour.com, today:
<snip>
After 55.5km Lance got to stand on the podium alone to celebrate what is
likely to be the last stage win of his life. But favorites have also been
known to want more; and maybe - just maybe - he’ll conclude his career with
an attack on the streets of Paris in the final stage. That would be a dream
scenario but it’s not necessary.
"Bernard Hinault won on the Champs Elysees in 1979," said the Tour’s
historian Jacques Augendre on the eve of today’s time trial. "Of course it
would be a beautiful way for Armstrong to end his racing days. He’s a
complete rider and I’m sure he would be tempted but the final day is one
for the sprinters. Armstrong doesn’t need to take a risk and get involved
in the quest for line honors."

LOL.
