The cycling unions are such shameless hypocritical sociopaths. They would much rather single out a scapegoat and put the blame squarely on that individual than they would allow the systematic filthiness and corruption which entirely permeate their corporations to be uncovered.
No sorry he is a lying piece of shit loser. He wasn't like all other dopers. He was an icon lifted by the people, shining example of hope and overcoming cancer. He threatened people and ruined their carriers over the doping exposure. He held out like a snake and back stabbed legends like greg Lamond. Lance is a piece of shit end of story.
@@creativity.studio4967 Not a fan of the guy anymore. IF it declined in America, it's because he got it high enough to even have a decline...Average person on the street still names Lance as the cyclist of America. He made it kinda cool, brought the limelight. And it kinda died with him too.
Starting from 7:01 to 7:27 even Lemond knew that even he could not keep up with the EPO rage. Notice what he said here 45 km/hr avg was already pushing the envelope and then the 50km hr hit and that was enough for him.
The only American winner of the TDF. Enough said. I watched all 3 of his TDF victories on television and the fact that he had to retire because he couldn't keep up with the blokes doping was disgusting. My favourite cyclist ever.
Oh je, einer von denen, die uns den Schlamassel eingebrockt haben, oder? Spritzen aus der Schwarzwaldklinik. Armin Klümper, Joseph Keul, Andeas Schmid, Lothar Heinrich. Wäre mal schön, wenn er heute mal offen darlegt, wie sich aus seiner Sicht alles zugetragen hat.
The fact he lied about not taking enhancements is the reason I’m fine with him being punished. But, it’s clear the critics and organizations had it in for him stronger than was fair. All the elite racers were doing the blood doping in that era and everyone, on the neutral side, agree that 100 percent he brought millions into the biking industry. He brought even more popularity to the tour, made trek what it is and it’s still going strong. There’s wide speculation that Armstrongs greatest critic, lemond, also cheated.
Lemond rode for French teams that doped their riders, whom he beat, and he was the only clean rider? In mid 1989, Greg was getting dropped on climbs by sprinters, then overnight is suddenly a world beater. He magically recovered from an iron deficiency and low hermatocrit to come from pondering retirement to winning the tour and worlds, beating confessed dopers. The only way to,achieve such a transformation in 1989 is EPO.
Always an interesting rider. In Europe, it was fashionable to disapprove of him for not being a European. I (and many others) were very cross with him for beating Fignon in the (89?) TdF. But... He was an extraordinary rider and remains a wonderful ambassador for the sport. I was slow to accept his brilliance. But he was brilliant.
No American cyclist can hold a candle to Greg Lemond. (Lance who?!) He could have won more TdF titles, but wisely chose his health and family over fame and money. True to the saying that the best revenge is living well, Greg still seems to be in great shape (i.e., notwithstanding lead poisoning from those leftover shotgun pellets in his body). Every sport, big- or small-time, needs an honest, straight-shooting, and uncorruptable winner like Greg. (Hmm, maybe I can have him as my write-in candidate at the next school board election, if only to make a point.)
