As we roll into the unofficial start of summer, we’re reminded that normally around this time of year, we’re gearing up for the Tour de France. After all, the race typically starts in June. But thanks to the pandemic, it’ll now kick off at the end of August. And instead, right now, we get… Lance.
That’s right. This Sunday, on the heels of The Last Dance, ESPN rolls out another Lance Armstrong documentary. Two questions: 1. How did they not call this one The Last Lance? 2. Can we just say we’re kind of over it already? No matter your feelings on his racing/doping exploits, just seems like we’ve heard enough from the guy over the past few years.
So instead of watching that spectacle, we thought of another way to relive the adrenaline rush of TDFs past: shopping road bikes from the Armstrong era on eBay! After all, a nice little ride is way more fun than sitting on the couch anyway. Here are five that caught our eyes.
