Tour de France There's plenty of drama in this year's Tour de France bike race, starting with the return of Lance Armstrong; the dominance of the Astana team he rides with; the tension between current leader Alberto Contador and others; and the sudden departure of Northern Californian Levi Leipheimer because of a broken wrist. Covering all this on scene is Sacramento journalist and cycling specialist James Raia. Raia was also a guest on Insight's fifth show on July 23rd, 2004 to talk with us from France about that year's race.
