Tour de France Coverage - Armstrong Goes Off Road: "Meanwhile, close behind, Armstrong was forced off the road, where he magnificently--one would even be tempted to add miraculously--rode through a hay field. The champ in a cool and confident manner lifted his bike over a ditch, hoped on his Trek, and began racing again.



'It was the most terrifying moment of my life,' Armstrong said on French television immediately after the finish. 'It was a real panic. In a moment like that... it was a reflex of survival.' He also said rather astutely that between crashing and cyclocross, he made the best choice. Few argued."
