Lance Armstrong posted on his Twitter page Monday this year’s Tour de France will be his last.
“And yes, this will be my final Tour de France. It’s been a great ride. Looking forward to 3 great weeks,” he tweeted.
A seven-time winner of cycling’s most prestigious race, Armstrong, 38, returned to the Tour last year after a three-year absence and finished third behind Astana teammate Alberto Contador of Spain.
Armstrong started a new team for this year’s race. He won the race seven straight times from 1999-2005 before retiring.
The Tour starts Saturday in the Netherlands.
