    What the hell just happened ?

    It takes about 2 seconds with Google to find evidence. "Ex-teammate: I saw Lance Armstrong inject EPO". Eyewitness testimony is evidence. http://www.cbsnews.com/2100-18560_162-20064858.html

    Why is Lance Still Racing?

    You're confused because you are lumping USA Cycling (USAC) and the US Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) together. The USAC is an administrative organization of cycling event in the US and they fall under the international organization, the UCI. Race organizers decide if they want their races...
