In 1999, Lance Armstrong came into the Tour de France as a cancer survivor,
not a favorite for the overall.

In this exclusive video series, VeloNews takes a look back at how he won what was to become his first of seven consecutive Tour de France titles.

VeloNews.tv will release segments of this 15-video series daily right up until the eve of the 2009 Tour de France.
