World Champion Cyclist Comes Out of Retirement
The world’s greatest cyclist of all time exited retirement, today. The seven-time Tour de France champion will come back to cycling in 2009 as part of a cancer strategy initiative that he will announce on September 24th at the Clinton Global Initiative.
It is not readily apparent on which team he will race, but rumors are that he will return to former race director, Johan Bruyneel with Team Astana. Team Astana hails from Kazakhstan, the home of many up-and-coming young cyclists. He will have two former teammates in Levi Leipheimer and Jose Luis Rubiera.
One has to wonder whether he will include FRS as part of his training regimen.
