Well, I know a little more about cycling than that.

However, I didn't think many people would be too interested in the specifics of the sport, so I didn't go into detail. The "Lance" debate is pretty heated, actually. It's due to the fact that the only thing he really ever wins is the Tour de France. Some say he is among the greatest cyclists to ever compete. Others say he is mediocre at best.
I think he just doesn't focus on anything but the Tour. He probably just uses the other races throughout the year as training sessions leading up to the Tour. That's just my opinion though.
