Congratulations on the Tour de France

Congratulations to the winner of the 2009 Tour de France, Alberto Contador. He was simply untouchable in this race. The Tour is grueling and the rider who has the best combination of strength and solid tactics always wins. That rider was Alberto Contador. Remarkably, he's now won the last four Grand Tours that he's entered.

Also congratulations to Lance Armstrong. He's almost 38 years old. Moreover he retired after his 2005 victory. To come back to cycling at his age and after such a long layoff and take a podium spot in the Tour de France is truly an amazing feat.

Finally, 24 year old Andy Schleck deserves credit for a fantastic ride that made him the runner-up. The Schleck brothers are a great cycling story and we can look forward to them going head to head with Contador for years to come.
