Well, when you watch it 3 times a day you pick up a few facts (July is all Tour, all the time around here).
1I've been DVRing it on versus.
2I love watching the Tour. I know it is definitely summer when it comes on. Watch it every day. But I must say, it is definitely not a clean and clear race anymore. Pretty sad.
3Do you remember that Armstrong was also tested positive for doping, but nothing ever happend to him...
Wow, 7 times is super impressive!
4Anon says LA was tested positive...I hope she or he will provide a link! There have been accusations since he returned from cancer treatment, but I've NEVER heard that he actually tested positive, much less benn given "a pass".
There was a situation in year 6 or 7 where the "pop test" was delayed because he wasn't up yet or was not in his room....big headlines..."Armstrong ducks drug test!".
I think they found a "strange product" on his toothbrush...turned out to be "Toothpaste!"
5well I hoped I would get 100%, good thing I did...I'm a road cyclist after all
I
love seeing the cycling articles on fitsugar, it seems so many are running oriented. way to go fit, let's keep the bike articles coming! =)
btw lance armstrong has not tested positive for doping agents. he's been tested over 24 times in the last year alone. he's THE most tested athlete in the world, it's ridiculous to suggest he's a doper.
