Attended a function in support of the Women's Cancer Research Fund, where they honored 6-time Tour de France champ Lance Armstrong for his support and courage.
I don't know much about the guy -- except that he could probably outpedal me on the bike path between Venice and Marina del Rey -- but he came off as very genuine and sincere. I hope all the allegations about his taking steroids isn't true.
Tom Hanks hosted the event and, at one point, started an auction for a non-descript bike that Lance would sign and -- this is the fun part -- you get to ride bikes with Lance and Robin Williams around town. My $100 bid didn't quite cover it as the winner's bid was an astounding $70,000.
Lance's current flame Sheryl Crow played a few numbers for the crowd before we left and picked up our goodie bags on the way out. Priscilla tells me there was some good stuff in there -- Tiffany pin, Bulova clock, perfumes, hand cream and a couple of shirts.
