Lance Is Human

I see that Lance broke his collar bone in a crash during a race in Spain, which is a tune up for the Tour de France.
This is the first collar bone break for Lance, and believe it or not, collar bone breaks are a very common injury for pro level cyclers, because of the way you crash into the pavement. It is all in the angles.

I know the Tour is just a bunch of thin 'roid pumping, blood transfusing nutcases, but it makes for great TV for a biking fan like me, and I was really looking forward to Lance taking the trophy back. Oh well, hopefully some of our other American riders can make a run at it.
