This is far along in the TdF streak and sounds like LA was depending more and more on medical intervention vs the "training harder than anyone else" schtick we get hit with so often.
We get told often that LA passed 500 tests. But it's not true.
Currently there seems to be a lot of acceptance that LA trained harder than anyone else - but is there any proof of this?
Mike was there to see the training and then the change in the person and his training.
Given LA only really raced the Tour and little else, with significant medical help, I'm beginning to wonder if this "training harder than anyone else" is just more smoke screen. That in fact his training was below everyone else, but his medical program made up the difference - for the last couple of tours at least.
