“I was very impressed with the event,” Armstrong said. “Everyone enjoys the race. The crowds were simply amazing. It was a tough final day, a great race, and it was good to be back in it. Hats off to the organizers, the state and the people for coming out. I’m excited to be back, but I don’t know if I’ll be back in 2010.

“The crowds were tripping over each other at the top." Zabriskie said. "I don’t think they knew what they were doing like they do in the Tour de France, so I was trying to be careful not to hit them"
