Armstrong thinking again about World's

Chris Henry & Tim Maloney

It's been a bit of an on again-off again saga concerning Lance Armstrong's participation in this year's world championships in Canada. After some additional reflection, it seems things are back on. "I've left the possibility open since I've heard good things about the parcours and its difficulty," Armstrong told l'Equipe on the eve of Circuit de la Sarthe. "That gives me new interest in going since I might have a role to play."

Armstrong has not ridden the world championships since 1998, the year before his Tour de France reign began. Nonetheless, to compete closer to home is always an attraction. "I'm still intrigued by the ambiance of a World's in North America. The door's open, but either way I'll know more after the Tour."
