For the love of Gawd, please stop focusing on what Lance Armstrong does not does not do. He is no longer relevant to cycling and you need to treat him as such......

The correct answer would have been "LA is free to ride whatever charity events he wishes. It has nothing to do with the ASO or the TdF." Then just STFU and not comment any further.

Just say "NO!" to WCP!!!!

Gotta love the instant media hype and how they turn this into Armstrong's ride and Armstrong plans....this provides a better perspective

Actually this is absolutely fascinating in a slow motion car crash sort of way. For all the mountains of evil originating from he who shall not be named, a lot of good came too (Yes I know it was self serving but it was good nonetheless). Is it possible to salvage some of that? I hope so but this does not seem to be the way.
BTW, the soccer player/cancer survivor rides a Trek. Just perfect in every way.
