Lance Armstrong Pics and Bio 2011

Born: 18 September 1971
Birthplace: Plano, Texas
Best known as: The seven-time winner of the Tour de France. He was predominantly raised by his mother Linda, who was married and divorced twice. Armstrong grew up in the suburbs of Dallas and took part in athletics at a young age. By age 13, he was competing in triathlons, which led to him turning pro at age 16.

But Armstrong soon found that he loved cycling more than running and swimming, and he chose to focus his energy on his favorite sport. Soon, the national cycling team took notice and invited young Lance to work out with them, while he was still a senior in high school.
