If Lance Armstrong could ride RAGBRAI, could George Hincapie be far behind?

Hincapie won't be riding across Iowa, but he will be cycling in Oregon this weekend at the Oregon Wine Country MS 150 Bike Tour.

The Discovery team rider is the only cyclist to participate in all 7 of Armstrong's Tour de France victories. We all had high hopes for the Greenville, S.C., resident this year when he donned the yellow jersey after the second day of the bike race.

Although he didn't keep it, Hincapie became only the fourth American to earn the yellow jersey. Before him were Greg LeMond, Armstrong, and David Zabriskie.

The fund-raising ride for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society is based in Forest Grove on Saturday and Sunday and includes options that range from 41 to 178 miles.

Information on joining the ride or donating to the cause is available at the MS150 website.
