Saturday’s fourth stage of Vuelta a Murcia saw the riders compete in a 13.7 mile time trial. Though Team Radioshack’s Lance Armstrong did not get the expected top 3 placement, he did crawl up to a seventh place in the general classification. Lance Armstrong did not talk to the media after today’s time trial but Team RadioShack spokesman Philippe Maertens said the Lance was “not happy but not unhappy either.”
However Armstrong sent out a couple of tweets after the time trial:
“TT finished here in Murcia. Tough one in that it was out/back. Pedaling 99% of the time. You forget how corners help in recovery!”
“And Rabon smoked the TT – very very impressive. Putting serious time into Menchov, Wiggins, and Klodi aint easy my friends”
Andres Kloden came in fourth in the time trial that was won by the unstoppable Frantisek Rabon who was 33 seconds faster than Menchov who came in second.
Andrea Kloden is now fourth overall.

Lance review your old position n the bike.. check out this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRQhTaSj0K0
your position in this video is different from your actual one.. there we can see how comfortable you were and the leg kept spinning that fast about +120 rpm .. please review that idea.. you are still that fit to hit top ten… but you need something defferent something that offers dont have.. your old strange position on the TT bike makes wonders and it does look elegant too… that a thought Lance!
