Today, cyclist Lance Armstrong makes a ceremonial ride along the Champs-Elysees to mark another victory and bid farewell to fans (and his miraculous cycling career) at the appropriately named Arc de Triomphe.
Armstrong sealed his sporting legacy by winning an unprecedented 7 consecutive wins at – the world cup of cycling – Le Tour de France.
But he has earned an even more enduring and endearing legacy by embracing his inspirational role as someone who not only overcame a deadly bout with cancer but actually went on to LIVESTRONG and thrive as survivor.
Congratulations Lance!
And, thanks for the inspiration….
