The Team Wasn't Just Riders. It Was

Giving Up Was Never An Option

Everything In My Life Is In Perspective. Ok, Perspective Ebbs And Flows. I've Had Bad Days, But They Weren't In The Last Years. A Bad Day Is 2 October 1996: 'we've Got Bad News For You, You've Got Advanced Testicular Cancer And You've Got A Coin's Toss Chance Of Survival.' That's A Bad Day.

The Ban Doesn't Have Anything To Do With Livestrong Or My Ability To Work In [the Cancer] Community. Perhaps It Speeds It Up. I Don't Know The Examples In Great Britain Of Athletes Who Have Fallen. I Know The Examples In The United States - The Tiger Woods, The Michael Vicks, Even The Bill Clintons - People Who Are Still Out There Able To Work.

I Love This Race From The Very Depths Of My Heart. It Gives Me Motivation And It Transcendsme Like Nothing Else In The World.

I Didn't Just Jump Back On The Bike And Win. There Were A Lot Of Ups And Downs, Good Results And Bad Results, But This Time I Didn't Let The Lows Get To Me.
