Armstrong comes to Brisbane straight from riding in the Tour Down Under in Adelaide on Sunday, his final international race.

With Armstrong's involvement, the ride is expected to raise up to 500,000 AU dollars (494,850 U.S. dollars) for flood victims, it 's unlikely that his legions of devoted fans will care about the slip.
