Default Happy Birthday, Greg LeMond.

Greg LeMond - Wikipedia

Admire how he stood up against the cheating of Lance Armstrong especially when it was not popular to do so.

He went to the same high school I went to in Reno, Nevada but I was Class of 1976, while he was Class of 1979.

I think his older sister sat in front of me in some class in 1975 or 1976.

What an incredible man and how many difficulties he survived!

He would be rich++ if The Badger would not have screwed him over. As well, Greg should have won 5 Tours. But The Comeback on the time trial to beat Fignon was epic.
