Seven-time Tour De France winner Lance Armstrong is getting back on a bike after taking three years off. In this exclusive FanHouse video we hear from Lance, his fans, and Lance's close friend, actor Ben Stiller, who says that going to lunch with the sports icon is not as cool as people might think. We also find out how those yellow wrist bands we are all so familiar with came into being, and what Armstrong really thought about them at first. Check out the video after the jump.

Lance should retire for good and pay attention to his kids! He just can't live without the spotlight!

As Lance's spotlight goes, so goes cancer research funding. You know, poe6matt, it's entirely possible that Lance actually does want to raise awareness for the fight against the disease that almost killed him. As long as he is visible, the fight is getting publicity, and research money is being raised. Sure, he loves the spotlight for himself, too, but when you can have your cake and eat it, why not? Don't begrudge him this time--when he's done, America will turn it's back on bicycling, and the cancer funding will slow considerably. His return really is a good thing.
