The bookies may only have Team RadioShack's Lance Armstrong down as third favourite to win this summer’s Tour de France, but the Texan cyclist will have some cause for celebration later this year after revealing that girlfriend Anna Hansen is expecting his fifth, and her second, child.
Armstrong, who has nearly 2.5 million followers on the social networking site Twitter, revealed the happy news in a reply to fans who were curious as to the identity of the latest person he was following, the as-yet unborn ‘cincoarmstrong’ – we’re guessing the Spanish for ‘fifth’ explains the nickname.
The seven-times Tour de France winner tweeted “'Getting ?s today about someone I'm following, a certain @cincoarmstrong. What to say? Yet another blessing in our lives. I cannot wait!,” and the forthcoming addition to the family has wasted no time in following in Dad’s footsteps by getting to grips with Twitter, its debut message saying “'I got 2 arms, 2 legs, a nickname and (I'm) 2 inches long. See y'all in October.”
Subsequent tweets from Cincoarmstrong stated: “
I'm now the size of a lemon, 3.5 inches long, and weigh 1.5 ounces. And oh yeah, I'm on Twitter,” and “working on my avatar. It's slightly complicated. For me at least.”
Armstrong and Hansen already have one son, 10-month old Max, while the cyclist has three children from his marriage to ex-wife Kristen, twins Isabella and Grace, aged eight, and a son, Luke, who is 11 years old.
From Cinco’s profile, it appears that the nipper will answer to the name Jack if male, and Olivia if a girl.
For friends or family wanting to buy gifts but unsure whether to go pink or blue, it’s worth remembering that yellow is a safe option that covers both genders, and given the brand identity of Armstrong’s Livestrong charity, a perfectly appropriate choice.
No thanks...you can keep your mini cars off my bike lanes. I want the scooters (petrol and electric) off as well.
Nice easy way to get to the beach for a walk - just have to make sure she doesn't see any squirrels.

As it's often said -'the way to justify the building of a bridge is not too count the number of people swimming the crocodile infested river!'
I used to go that way to work. It's nasty and congested. I doubt any changes will make the congestion worse.
