Best Answer

Lance started riding the Tour in -93, and kept it up until -96 without winning the overall race.

He was out of competition due to cancer from -96 to -99.

He won the Tour de France seven times, between 1999 and 2005 when he had a go at retirement.

Apparently he tired of that and rejoined the tour for the 2009-2010, when de did well for "an old man", but didn't win.

He has ridden a total of 13 Tours de France, and has subsequently been stripped of his titles due to his use of unallowed performance enchancing drugs.
