Besides Lance, Pantani did the same thing; DT left, Ergo right.  Apparently 
it's popular for mountain stages.

Doing my first century, something like 16 years ago now, I saw a guy on a 
Lightspeed (IIRC) with DT shifters.  I was so proud of my Command Shifters 
at the time.  We started chatting about shifting and he mentioned that the 
DT shifters were lighter than integrated units...and gradually rode away 
from me up the hill (though I don't think the shifters were the reason for 
that).
