| Lance Armstrong (right foreground) crashes during the finish of the 15th stage of the 2003 Tour de France. His handlebars snagged on a mussette bag held by a young boy, causing both him and Iban Mayo (behind Armstrong) to go down. | Jan Ullrich (behind the other two riders) skows and waits for Armstrong, the overall Tour Leader, to remount and continue riding. Armstrong immediatley got back on his bike and with a rush of adrenalin rode to win the stage, increasing his lead to 1:07. Photo: TdeF/ PhotoSport International. |
