Man this takes me back. I was a cycling enthusiast and amateur racer(mountainbike and biathalons/triathalons) who did a ton of riding in the early/mid 90's and followed the sport quite a bit. I remember tuning in to watch every summer. I watched plenty of the tour before and after Lance was running things, but that time was truly exciting. I'd watch every weekend during the day and thankfully CBS or OLN or whoever was airing it would do sort of condensed "replays" at night that I'd tune in for for the first couple of his wins. By 2001, we had cable with DVR so I could record the entire stages. Nothing beats Phil LIgget and Paul Sherwen and Bob Roll on color commentary all those years.

ignorant comment it is hardly an even playing field and the teams with the biggest budgets dope the best. USPS and lance used influence to get the UCI to overlook positive testosterone results and bullied and snitched all while being dirty themselves. they could delay a car with EPO in the truck so that a rival didnt have the dose when they needed to. cyclists became more science experiment than athlete and it ruined the sport. even nowadays the nutrition is a secret and top riders take mystery recovery drinks and vitamin tablets. i am of the opinion it will never stop but the UCI needs to make sure the sport has credibility.

nope no thank you only simpletons think like this. It's not about who the best at cycling is or even who the best at doping is, its whos the best at getting away with it is. Armstrong was a politician, he's well connected and knew insider information not only about the best drugs and best physician but also ho tests are going to be conducted. He's also very adept and flexible, every year he changes his strategy from employing "motoman" to deliver epo to avoid busts, to blood transfusions the following year, to microdoping the next. It's not even a competition when its just information gathering and getting creative with not getting caught. And I dont even have to mention the harassment and power tripping. It may be fun for you folks to delude yourselves into thinking its a level playing field but sorry, Id rather smoke weed if i want to fool myself.

If we have two groups so we will hear from Norway Sweden Australia Canada their White clean athletes will beat Lance Armstrong easily! The truth is No-one clean athletes will beat Lance Armstrong! Clean would lose 3-4 minutes 60 minutes time trial to Armstrong!

Protected sports (because money talks) are tennis, football/soccer, golf, NFL/gridiron, rugby union, and of course track and field, particularly if there's a big name. Drugs scandals cost money so there's a lot of protection/back scratching to keep a certain amount of testing to be kept QT or even have limited testing/advanced warnings.

After the scandal of Festina Team in 1998 it is very disappointing that the Tour organisers did not radically upgrade doping controls in 1999. They knew most of top contenders had any reason to use drugs including Armstrong but Tour de France is principally a bussiness and money comes first 😪
@bucknaked6674
@bucknaked6674 4 жыл бұрын
They did radically improve doping controls, they introduced the 50% haematocrit rule which led to the finish of pantani's career. There was no way of testing for growth hormone or epo or transfusions back then. There was one for testosterone but it could be gotten around and although they've improved it, hence Floyd Landis was caught, it still can be worked around. The same drugs and methods are still being used today, just smaller dosages more regularly so they don't trigger the passport. The unknown is what drugs have been developed since that are also being used, most likely aicar at small dosages at the very least.

The problem isn't the riders, it's the dope controls. Every Tour winner since year zero was on some sort of medication/performance enhancer. It's just the nature of the sport. Armstrong did what everyone else did & still does (lol @ Pogacar). Dope controls were introduced by ignorant morons who understand nothing about cycling & since then, it's gotten worse & worse. Riders now can't even take a cortisone injection for a sore knee. It's absurd. The public wants Tour champions who attack, who have panache, stages with excitement & great memories... but they sh*t themselves with anguish & self righteousness when they hear the riders are on medication. This problem was initially caused by the introduction of dope controls in 1966. Before that, no one asked questions or shat all over the athletes.

I have been watching the TDF since the mid 1980's, it was and still is the highlight of my year. Phil's, Paul's and Gary's commentary is sorely missed. The Lance Armstrong story was such feel good story, a miracle. Everyone knew they were all doping, it was almost priced into any cycling enthusiasts hero worship of the elite riders fans. I doubt the UCI, TDF or WADA would have made such an example of Armstrong only for his abhorrent behaviour towards towards journalists like Walsh, other riders like Hamilton and Landis, or the things he said and did towards Frankie Andreau's wife and the teams masseuse. What destroyed any respect I had for him as a human being was the shocking attack on one of the sports GOAT Greg LeMond. We all know now they were all doping with steroids and EPO, what is the biggest mystery is how he managed to provide completely clean doping tests? An even bigger mystery is how the current generation manage to crush all records when they are all riding clean, now that is a head scratcher!!!

Lance is the biggest jackass in cycling history. I've seen him race a few times when he was about 20-years old and I knew guys in the peloton, nobody liked his arrogance. That same arrogance made him think it was okay to dope both physically and mechanically. Arrogance that thinks he can win the TDF 7X IN A ROW! That arrogance made him reveal Greg Lemond's private details of having been molested as a child. The same jackass that ruined Lemond's frame building company. To this day, he still thinks Floyd landis was wrong for outing him in doping scandal. Dude is the biggest tool in American cycling history.

Those years were great races. Armstrong did not create the doping problem in cycling. By the early 90s the peloton was a rolling pharmacy with EPO emerging. Armstrong was the best rider of the EPO doping era. There is a reason why after he was officially stripped of his 7 TDF titles, no one else was declared the winner. And all the the govt setting out to destroy Armstrong did was to destroy US cycling without cleaning up the sport at all.

@@icarus8471 you answered your own question lol Lance ruined his name and bankrupted his 20 million dollars a year business because Greg dared speak the truth... he didnt even call lance out, he said it will be the biggest fraud if lance is doping, thats all it took for lance to ruin his life. You are obviously a delusional fanboy if you are defending lance doing that

I know the whole story. Which does not answer my question. Lemond knew what the sport was. And he understood how his business was depending on other companies that were centered around Lance. He says nothing and it would have been fine.

I mean, Lance was full on EPO, so i would hope so. Even if Vingegaard is doping, it's much "weaker" stuff then Armstrong. Also, Vingegaard is 10 kilo lighter so he should be better in the high mountains
