Re:
Well he says he first crossed the line at the Settimana Bergamasque race in 91, but claims it was legal stuff including Cortisone Then he admits to progressing to non legal medications in 93 and onto EPO in 95 so it does actually line up. What is clear is his eagerness to win at all costs as early as 19 when he was too happy to be treated. I would imagine he was treated with the same 'extract of cortisone' as Greg Stock/ Eric Kaiter.
As for him winning the Tour if everyone was clean, that is dubious as it is totally unprovable. How does Armstrong know he was the best without drugs? especially when he admits to having doped from his first full season as a pro. Armstrong still clearly has a lot of delusions that are not exactly making him any more likeable.

He told Oprah during the interview with her, that he didn't start doping until '95 or so and he told the guy on ESPN he started in '93 and he's not called out on it.
