"The EuroWeenies can never except that "Armstrong the Yank" is superior to them."

Yeah, superior in his abilities to not get caught.

That sport is rife with chemical enhancement and the testing programs are a joke. There have been some investigations of this in the European newspapers and it's not pretty.

They have it down to a science now, with the team physician often helping make sure they flush the stuff out of their system before it's their turn for a blood test. There have been some cyclists on European teams who suffered significant complications from all the stuff they take, too.

Complete BS!

International Cycling uses the same rules as the Olympics does on athletes.

They can show up at your door at 2AM on a Sunday during the off season and demand a sample, failure to comply is an automatic suspension.

Armstrong has been the most tested athlete in the history of cycling averaging more than 6 submissions per year and has come out clean every time.

Uh oh. Despite his wearing spandex, a yellow bracelet, riding a bike, and being named Lance, he is some sort of macho here over here at FR. You will be crucified for suggesting anything negative about him.

And you KNOW this because....? What?

You a Doctor?
You take the stuff yourself?
Every been on a bike?
Are you French?

You sling something like that you should be able to back it up, so where is your proof?
