Thanks!

Lance is a turd who got a lot of folks into cycling. But a turd he remains. Oh and fuck professional cycling generally.

For the record, I have won exactly as many Tour-de-France's as Lance Armstrong.

Just sayin'.

Apologies for the apostrophe, by the way.

I watched a documentary about Armstrong a couple of years ago - I can't remember which one, but I was left with the impression that he was a sociopath. It wasn't the cheating, it was his willingness to happily destroy other people's lives, and his apparent total lack of remorse.

Yeah I have long considered him to be a sociopath. But then my psychological insights are suspect at best.

“You could smoke that joint and go to work driving your tractor (and) in two weeks test positive, because the half-life is much longer,” Armstrong told Maher. “With EPO, which was the rocket fuel that changed not just our sport but every endurance sport, you have a four-hour half-life, so it leaves the body very quickly. With a four-hour half-life, you can just do the math.”

By “the math,” it can be assumed the Armstrong was referencing the length of an average Grand Tour stage, meaning, by the time a stage was finished and Armstrong might be tested, the level of EPO in his system was undetectable.
