This has been discussed very consistently since it happened, and you will more than likely get lots of different ideas of what is actually going on. According to Lance, he was simply looking back behind him and accounting for who else was in the group he was leading. According to many people, and of course comentators, this is known as "The Look"--when Armstrong started down his main rival. If you ask me, it was blown way out of proportion. Not sure what year it happened, maybe 2001, and definitely in a mountain stage.

Seconds after this photo, Lance was 20 metres ahead of Ullrich who couldn't follow. Lance flew up the mountain and camera shots of Ullrich showed him struggling while Armstrong spun his way up.
