America's seven time Tour de France champion Lance Armstrong told that he is seeking an unique eighth title and like Stephen Roche try for the double of a Tour of Italy and Tour de France titles. Armstrong was thought to be only a contender for the Tour of Italy but has rescinded on the idea."Lance Armstrong announces his participation in the 2009 Tour de France," announced his team on their website."I have a lot of respect for this event and I am not pesimistic in the new direction that the Tour de France is taking."The fact he has decided to compete in Tour de France is interesting given that the present cycling number one Alberto Contador belongs to the same team and is the existing Tour de France champion.
