I'LL GO along with the estimation that he cheats ....or cheated...but he was up against top competition that was also cheating ...although taking a t transfusion of you own blood after a race,to get ready for the next ride is hardly the act of public enemy #1 .. I'll give you that...... but loser.. NO WAY he won 7 straight TDF'S against cyclings best ,who were also juiced...kinda like bonds... poster boy for sure... butworse than anybody else out there ...IT IS THE SPORT that was cheating and they needed AFAMOUS guy to throw to the wolves when the scandal was exposed ....
