		The three-time Tour de France champion -- who’s about to become the four-time Tour champion Sunday in Paris -- had some business to settle in Saturday’s 50km time trial through the spectacular wine country of France’s Beaujolais region.
		That should be the story of the final stage of the 2002 Tour de France.

		On the night before the beginning of the shortest Tour de France since 1905, it seems at the same time to loom the most decided as well as the most potentially treacherous running of the race in recent memory.
		Igor Gonzalez de Galdeano has a mechanical of some sort of another, but his team car is delayed behind the crash confusion.
		Gonzalez de Galdeano hits the finish under the 1:03:03 that he needed to retain the yellow jersey - his time (provisional) is 1:02:37.

	TOUR DE FRANCE
		The Tour de France, in contrast, has long been a household name around the globe, even amongst people who are not generally interested in pro cycling, and is for cycling what the FIFA World Cup is to football (soccer) in terms of global popularity.
		The Tour was founded as a publicity event for the newspaper L'Auto (ancestor of the present l'Équipe) by its editor and co-founder, Henri Desgrange, to rival the Paris-Brest et retour ride (sponsored by Le Petit Journal), and Bordeaux-Paris.
		In 2002, the wife of Raimondas Rumsas, third-place finisher in the 2002 Tour de France, was arrested by French police after EPO and anabolic steroids were found in her car.

		The ONCE team of yellow jersey Gonzalez de Galdeano led the peloton, but did not make attempts to catch the five back, since they were enough behind in the general classification (over 4 minutes) not to threaten Gonzalez de Galdeano.
		Gonzalez de Galdeano lost only 8 seconds to Armstrong, and is now 26 seconds ahead in the GC - note that Armstrong lost 27 seconds in stage 7; he would have worn the yellow with 1 second difference otherwise.

	Nicest of the Damned: Tour de France Archives
		Lance Armstrong won the overall yellow jersey in 2002, and is heavily favored to win his 5th consecutive yellow jersey this year.
		This year, the tour also features a team time trial (TTT) where the entire team (of 9 riders) sets out as a group, and all riders on the team are awarded the time of the 5th rider to cross the line.
		The victory was the 2nd of this tour for Armstrong, who became the active leader with his 13th stage win in the Tour de France (Erik Zabel and Mario Cipollini -- who may or may not be retired -- each have 12).

	Active.com - 2002 Tour de France preview: Who will challenge Lance?
		Much has been said about this being the shortest Tour since 1905, but the comparison is a bit unfair, given that nearly 100 years ago racers rode one-speeds and carried spare tires on their backs.
		Tour, at 3,272 kilometers over 20 stages, is partly a move to make races manageable for riders, and hopefully lesson the push to use drugs.
		The 2002 route is actually quite similar to last year?s race.

		The Tour de France spent a number of days in the last week of the race in the Alps, where we saw Santiago Botero, Michael Boogerd and Dario Frigo all take stage victories.
		There were no problems on the climb of Les Deux Alpes as riders could make their way up the climb for most of the afternoon, but on the Col de la Madeleine and Col des Aravis, riders were asked to walk with at least an hour until the caravan passed through.
		On one occasion, one of my Tour party had the air let out of his front tyre and on another, two riders with our group were made to sit on the verge as the caravan passed.

		The wiry Basque, renowned as a climber but also good in time trials, showed he is in the sort of form to match that performance with his victory in the Tour of Catalunia last week.
		The Tour will provide a second chance to shine for one of the best climbers in the field.
		Heras is perhaps the most talented of the current crop of Spanish climbers but his priority will be to work for his new teammate and third place is probably the best he can hope for.

		PARIS, France (AP) -- Lance Armstrong has won his fourth straight Tour de France title, claiming one of his biggest and smoothest victories to date in the grueling three-week event.
		It was Armstrong's second biggest winning margin since first taking the Tour in 1999 with a 7:37 advantage of Alex Zuelle of Switzerland.
		Armstrong's tranquil ride to the finish mirrored the rest of his title campaign, in which neither rivals nor the demanding 3,277.5-kilometre (2,032.05-mile) course seemed to test the Austin native.
