    Darryl, Will you bring this up with the British branch of WADA? Surely now the agencies will be (you'd think!) more receptive/likely to investigate this sort of thing? Especially if the people you're referring to are in positions where they can influence the culture of a cycling team...

    He does out George and Vaughters. I don't remember if he said anything about Levi.

    USADA's Reasoned Decision 202 pages

    I know. But every time Livestrong and cancer research find themselves next to each other in a sentence, it is worth pointing out that they don't belong together. Because joking aside, people believe this to be the case, helped in no small part by dubious proclamations from Armstrong, Nike and...

    USADA's Reasoned Decision 202 pages

    Livestrong donations do not go toward cancer research. I know you're being flippant, but it's worth bringing up so that people don't get suckered into the Livestrong vortex.

    Official lance armstrong thread, part 2 (from september 2012)

    There can no longer be any doubt. That reasoned decision summary is absolutely brutal. The full report is almost certain to be worse for Armstrong. Great that they tracked the payments to Ferrari. And how dumb was Armstrong to leave that trail... With regard to the guys who testified - I...

    USADA-Armstrong Phase II

    Why do you say that a new system has been created specifically for Armstrong? He's being held accountable to the same rules as everyone else. He signed up to them every time he renewed his cycling license. This atleast is my understanding. I believe that you are entitled to recover your legal...

    USADA-Armstrong Phase II

    This constant portrayal of Armstrong as the Great White Whale is very grating. He had the financial resources and the administrative recourse (Arbitration, CAS, a return to Sparks) to challenge these charges. Yet he chose not to. And is getting on with his life. He hasn't bothered to defend...

    Books that deal with Doping

    Hello, I've been a lurker here for a little over a year and have spent an unhealthy amount of time going through the various threads on The Clinic. The thing that strikes me the most is just how horrific some of these methods seem. I can't imagine how some of these guys must have felt when...
