Does anybody else remember that press conference, I believe it was in 1997 or thereabouts, the same time Clean Ullrich won the Tour of France, the press conference where Lance was asked by French journos if he had ever doped, and he said, "Just the once, because I had to know what all the fuss was about/" Maybe those are not the exact words but it was a long time ago and maybe I am getting my words wrong, but he also said that he tried EPO, he went up to 42% hematocrit -- "to be like Jan" he said -- but then he said it didn't do anything so he stopped. And that's when he started winning, of course, right after he came back from cancer and his body was clean again.
It was a press conference in Germany, I remember it as I was there, he had a really neat hat on and I was on a holiday from my native Britain where I ride alot. PROOF that EPO does not work.
