1993 World Championships Lance Armstrong DVD

1993 World Championships Lance Armstrong DVD

Long before his run of seven straight Tour wins, Lance Armstrong was already a force to be reckoned with in professional cycling - and this 100 minute DVD reveals the innate talent Armstrong possessed prior to falling victim to cancer in 1997. In 1993, at just 21, Lance Armstrong became one of the youngest ever winners of the World Championships thanks to a combination of raw power, untrained yet focussed intuition and, of course, sheer class. This DVD is a uniquely crafted record of those first, brashly confident steps of a uniquely gifted rider on the professional scene-when Armstrong took on the World's best in the most challenging of circumstances and demolished the opposition. With dramatic weather conditions rendering a seven-hour 150-mile tale of gritty resistance even grittier, the Texan's performance against soughty European veterans in driving rainstorms and through technically complex urban terrain is painstakingly analyzed and recounted by cycling expert commentator Phil Liggett. So start your Lance Armstrong collection where the story really started, with this gripping foretaste of Armstrong's glorious future on the Tour de France stage, the DVD which reveals exactly why the Texan was destined to become one of cycling's-and sport's-all time greats.
