Lance Armstrong in Rolla: A personal view

Sunday, November 09, 2003

The Rolla Daily News covered Lance Armstrong's speech in Rolla last week. Among other topics, Armstrong talked about his victory last summer in the Tour de France:

During the final day of the race, after suffering a crash that cost him valuable seconds, Armstrong said he got back on the bike with a vengeance.

"I had the most incredible rush of adrenaline," he said. On top of that, Armstrong said the competitor's words came back to him just then: "I got mad then," he said.
