Default Re: Lance Armstrong

so they want to void the winners over the period ... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/cycling/19927300

On reflection I don't really blame lance or other riders for doping. It seems like it was pandemic over the period and in a way an arms war between the teams. With testing and regulation largely ineffective I guess you had to be in it to win it. And one suspects maybe the best person in it won it. Maybe there should be a drugs amnesty where all those that took part could freely acknowledge their use of banned substances and then work out a clearer picture of what happened.
Step up Mr Armstrong and lead the charge ...
