It’s that time of year again. The Tour De France is now underway. It started on July 2nd and goes through the 24th. Lance Armstrong is already in the lead wearing the yellow jersey. This is Lance’s last Tour De France and will be his 7th straight victory if he wins. He already holds the record for 6 consecutive wins. If your not familiar with Lance Armstrong and his courageous battle with cancer before winning the Tour De France, you can read a previous post I made back in November on the subject.

After battling and surviving cancer, Lance founded the Lance Armstrong Foundation to raise money for cancer research. If you want to learn more about the foundation and donate you can visit their site.

Here are some links and information about Lance, the Foundation and the race:
