Interestingly Lance won this year's Leadville Classic by a considerable margin after being beaten last year by 2 minutes by David Wiens who had previously won it 6 times. Some comeback, eh?
Please do bear in mind that some athletes are just better. Naturally. That's why we have sport.
In my local league, there are two or three little kids who are so much quicker than there peers it's embarrassing. We're used to that with adults in track athletics - why not cycling?

Indeed, there's differeing levels of ability. But there's also cheating, and it goes on even at low-level/kids competition. I've seen it in cycling with my own eyes and when brought to the attention of the 'authorities' they simply didn't want to know. Omerta starts when they're young. Shame really.
