Yeah, 5 years in a row!
Lance Armstrong was the only other person I was considering. He is a truly amazing athlete. Winning the Tour de France five times is in itself an amazing feat. If you consider that he is a cancer survivor, it makes it all the more amazing. His first win in 99 was awesome because it was the biggest comeback in Tour de France history. But now, you almost just expect him to win, although this year he was less than convincing. Anyway, I think Armstrong will go down as one of the greatest athletes of our generation.
