Armstrong will take part in the world's biggest 24-hour bike race with former US Postal teammates George Hincapie, Christian Vandefelde and Dylan Casey. The race will take place in Old Pueblo, Texas, at the end of February. A start for the convicted doper is only possible because "Old Pueblo" is not an officially recognized race. Hincapie has already registered his participation in the Cape Epic. Like Armstrong, Hincapie was convicted of doping and was banned for six months in October 2012.
