Lance Armstrong in Clovis?


Is Lance Armstrong coming to Clovis? Maybe reports the VeloNews, a cycling magazine. According to Velo, not only is Lance planning to race in the upcoming Tour de France, he'll be warming up by racing in a couple road races including the Tour of California. That's right the same Tour of California that has a stop-over in Clovis.

We've already heard how much of a boost the Tour of California has on it's host cities. Now just imagine if Lance actually competes in the race. This would bring quite a few more spectators into the city and would have quite a bit more press. It would be a nice little boost for our city.

Armstong, who turns 37 this month, is going to be racing again to raise awareness for cancer.
