Armstrong ready for his day of reckoning
Chauffailles - Lance Armstrong admitted that Wednesday's 47km time trial on the Dauphine Libere would be his first big test ahead of his bid for a seventh consecutive yellow jersey on the Tour de France.
Armstrong, a two-time winner of the Dauphine, is using the week-long stage race as a crucial preparation for next month's Tour - which will be his final race before retiring from the sport.
The American finished with the main peloton more than three minutes behind four glory-seeking Frenchmen on Tuesday's 187km stage from Givors to here which robbed his Discovery Channel team-mate George Hincapie of the race lead.
