"I believed that he (Armstrong) won those seven Tours clean. I wanted to believe that like everyone else.

There is something about the TONE of this article. Is he having a go?

He spent year with Riis.
We have Hamilton's testimony on Riis's relationship with Fuentes.
Plus, the clincher: He used similar language to Brailsford.
Clear evidence he's dodgy.

can I reply on behalf of BigBoat?

BigBoat: hehehe

Andy Rihs, make sure the spelling is right, even if the ethics is the same. are the same

By 2006 my neighbors cat had doubts about Armstrong riding clean. And here comes O'Grady, being in the peloton for 14 years during the darkest times ever and gives us that bull****. I sort of liked him until today but I hate it when people think I am stupid.

I'm in shock Stuart would think the fans are that stupid.

 

[Ney the Viking]

I'm in shock Stuart would think the fans are that stupid.

Really? The same Stuie that thought noone would notice his binge across Spain with Andy?

 

[Walkman]

I'm in shock Stuart would think the fans are that stupid.

Agreed!

The man is a disgrace!

Seeing comments like this makes me believe more and more in a guy like JV. Whatever his motives are, he isn't treating us like idiots.

Is this the same Stuart O'Grady who witnessed first hand Floyd's solo attack in 2006 and said he's been a professional bike rider for a long time and he knew that wasn't 'normal' ? Yet as a veteran of the peloton he's shocked at what was going on with Armstrong's teams? He and Chris Horner should meet up for a beer

Maybe they have, one too many times.

 

[Mr_Hansen]

Please guys, you ain't fair. Even Pat&Hein were surprised =;-)

 

[Zam_Olyas]

Does this mean he has a few roos loose in the top paddock?

 

[ebandit]

stoopid as stoopid is

omerta continues............sog............a real pro

and sog would be 'shocked' just how he was able to drive the bunch along for so long in big races

 

[esafosfina]

Just my opinion, but... in this day and age there is no way on earth that a top professional cannot have known or heard rumours and the like. To be 'shocked and stunned' is disingenious... overwhelmed and disappointed maybe, but to claim no knowledge simply sends mixed messages. (This doesn't apply to Stuey alone, I must add...)

 

[TheEnoculator]

O'Grady's comments are sickening. Him being a veteran should lead the fight in anti-doping, yet he resorted to standard omerta soundbites.

This tells me he is as dirty as guys like Hamilton, only he hasn't admitted to anything.
