Stan Holm, Executive Director of the Tour de Georgia, said:

The caliber of teams matched with Georgia�s beautiful yet challenging terrain ensures the 2005 Dodge Tour de Georgia will be the best yet.

The Dodge Tour de Georgia is the most anticipated stage race in the U.S. hands down and one of pro cycling�s most exciting new races anywhere. And, as many are predicting, this just might be the last time fans can see Lance race here in the U.S. All I can say is get ready!

Lance Armstrong has indicated in recent interviews that he plans to make a major announcement at the Tour de Georgia. Some media people have concluded that the announcement will be made at the opening press conference on Monday, April 18. I am planning to be there, so I hope to provide a report if makes an announcement.
