Floyd Landis - Post Stage 17 Interview, 2006 TDF
Stage 17 Interview after Floyd drilled it for 5+ hours and absolutely crushed the peleton. Lazy T-Mobile guys were thinking “oh, he will never last, no reason to chase”. Guys who sat on and never took a pull were flicked off his wheel. This was one of the most memorable rides in tour history. This evening Floyd received calls from George W, Lance, GL and a few others congratulating him on his effort.
This ride was a cumulative effort of anger resulting from Floyd’s S16 bonk, frustration from losing the Jersey and 15+ years of training and racing. He absolutely killed it in front of the world like no one else has ever done.
