An old Lance Armstrong video

A number of years ago, I think it was 2005, someone made an excellent compilation video of Lance Armstrong's tour and training. I can't seem to find the video, but I can describe parts of it. Hopefully one of you knows where to find it.

I remember there was a clock ticking at certain parts, the video had some training moments where Lance made the "updog" joke to a teammate, and someone on his team made a comment about riding through a "living area" and Lance joked "excuse me, but we need to ride through your living room".

I think part of the video may have had a clip about how there is a basement where Armstrong's (and the team's) tires are aged.

The video was fairly long if I remember correctly.

Any ideas?

Thank you!

Re: An old Lance Armstrong video

First of all, thank you for posting this. I had a wonderful time looking through all of my tapes and being nostalgic.

There were two videos with the story about the tires. One was Chasing Lance and the other was The Science of Lance. Neither one of these vidoes however had the updog joke in, which I do remember. I will continue to look through some of my tapes and see if I can find the updog joke and I'll will repost if I find it.

I don't think you can find Chasing Lance on Youtube but you can find The Science of Lance there. Enjoy.

I went looking for these when you first posted, but never found them.. I did stop and watch the Chacing Lance videos, though.

you can find them here:

you can find the rest through the above 2. Enjoy!

RE: old LA video "someome compiled a video"

I think the video you are refering to was a special series of pre TDF shows by OLN/VS (I think was pre VS so was OLN) named the "road to the Tour" - this was a kind of reality series following US Postal (I think this was pre- Disc CH/Astana) team and Lance during their prep/training before the big race - I remember an interesting segment where Lance allowed the cameras inside the hotel rm. without consulting JB first - LA had the camera man take a shot of some pills on a table or dresser - JB comes in and says something like "what are you doing" and shoos away the camera man - another interesting segment was when Lance and the team wanted to ride one of the mtn. stages of the race many months before - IE: in like May or something and the road / pass was still closed because was snow covered and there was footage of the team and some locals clearing a path through the snow so that LA and the team could ride (this sort of dispells the myth that the French hate LA - for whom else would the French locals do this for except perhaps one of their own champion/Patron of le Tour - that is if curently they had one)

the one about the science of Lance was on Discovery chanel and gave the science behind Lance's performance
