Nice way to cap off the Tour of Lance....er.....Tour of FRANCE! 

Stage win, and a nice way to end your career.  Kudos.

In case you haven't read one of his books, here's some nice reading I came across from earlier in his career:

I went away for the weekend and tivo'd the last two stages.  I've watched every stage since day one and had no problems, but the final time trial was cut off right before lance or Basso finished.... talk about a buzz kill...  But overall it was a great race.

In that final stage, Rasmussen was the Anti-Weeble.  That dude FOUND a way to wobble AND fall down! ;D

I dunno if Basso is the guy to beat next year.  I see Ulrich taking over.  7 years is an awful long time to wait, ya know!
