Ryaguas said:Well he has a bike shop in Austria and He is developing his own line of Bikes...
This case is really sad... Would have been better if he had accepted that he doped and had helped the autorities in the case, he just would have taken 1 year of ban and then he would have came back... but he choose the hard way and now here we are... is really sad... I'm a big fan but I'm pretty disappointed
Hope he can recover soon and that he can find pace in his life and with himself...
R.0.t.O said:[waiting to move to the clinic] Jan could have had a life ban if he was officially sanctioned because he had already served an amphetamine suspension, he sort of had to deny. A life ban like that would make it difficult for him to be a DS or do coaching if he wants to later on.
But since he said 'anyone that can't work out what happened in cycling is beyond my help,' to me he wants to tell the truth and probably will tell the truth once things are legally possible for him, probably 2014 at the earliest when he can't be sanctioned for working with Fuentes. He was an idiot for trying to sue Franke.

erader said:all that lying and denying is hard on a fella who at best has displayed dubious motivation throughout his career.

Cobblestoned said:This "dubious motivation" is a running gag. Nothing more.
The fairy tale of "fat, lazy Jan".
After his terrible knee injury, Jan was never the same - but he always gave his best.

Rudy tells much, when the day is long. Would have been better for Jan, if he never met him.Wallace said:Which is why Rudy P. said that psychological issues associated with doping drove Jan to over-eat in the off-season. Yep.
Really though--sad news. Ullrich from all accounts was one of the most decent guys in the peloton. I had the impression that he was enjoying his retirement, away from the sewer that is Pro Cycling (the sport we all love).

Mr.DNA said:I suppose it never occurred to Jan that being honest and coming clean about his career might give him some inner peace. Instead he chooses to fight it. I am still a fan of Jan and it saddens me to know he has submitted to the shrinks for "long term treatment." Good luck, Jan. You'll really need it now.

Ullrich is/was a genuinely nice guy. After I almost plowed into him while I was descending Monte Serra and he was about to begin a fitness test - I stopped to apologize and he was like, "No worries, the Jan is fine." and I was like, "Can I have a picture with your Greatness?" and he was like, "Yaa, the Jan loves to show his humble, friendly side, to counter the fear and horror he strikes in the hearts of his competitors." and I was like, "Sweet - well, say Cheese!"
