It seems he is still going strong after 7, but has maybe decided to say farewell afterall.

Lance Armstrong is truly a sensational inspiration, having overcome so much in his life. He exudes so much humanity and warmth that you can't help but be sucked into his magnetism of courage and achievement. I've really enjoyed watching the Tour De France this year, it was often difficult to just have it on the background as it would command attention with all of the drama surrounding it. Although I'm actually more of an Ullrich fan, I still must tilt my hat to the amazing competitor that is Lance Armstrong. The sport shall miss him indeed.

Well there's no maybe - he said he has definitely retired.
This was a great victory - his DSC teammates didn't seem to be as supportive as they have been in his previous wins so I think this one was possibly the best. However, I am more excited about Cadel!! Wow I am so proud of the little Aussie. Riding with his broken collarbone taped up and he gets 8th!!! Future winner right there!

So...congrats to him achieving 7th victory in Tour de France.
He is a credit to his race - the Human race. Yes, he is definitely retiring after this.

It was his moment in history to be the BEST, and it's good to see that he chose to go back for a 7th and be the UNDENIABLE BEST. Did anyone see his cameo in Dodgeball? Priceless.
