Morzine 2006, the stage 17. How can someone made a breakaway from more than a hundred kilometers to the finish line and still keep gaining more time to an entire peloton? I think we all knew the answer to that question inmediately. It was a surprise that the UCI let him finish that Tour, and didn't kick him out before the Champs-Élysées like Rasmussen the following year.

[@imarriedabrkfsttaco3737]

@@Videos-sobre-punhos-e-rodas they didn't kick him out mid race because they're even more corrupt than every doped rider who's even lived COMBINED. The UCI had to scrape every last cent off the bottom of the cess pool before their fake outrage and fake "We really want a clean race!" Bllsht. The UCI knew immediately Floyd was doped,but couldn't do anything because they'd have brought the hammer down on every team and would've had half a dozen riders still competing once they removed the entire malignancy from the dripping with dope peloton.

[@peterbirkemose]

I have no more malice against this guy than any other rider in the tdf in the last 20 years. They all did/do it, and if you don't believe that you're kidding yourself. What Armstrong did was act like a mafia boss and doping police using intimidation, threats and extortion to serve himself. Most riders' ambitions are a danger to their own health, Armstrong was a danger to everyone else and a smug prick on top of that. I just feel sorry for the guys who end up realizing they have to dope to compete in the sport they love, because no one who didn't dope could compete at the top of the stage races that's for sure. They could either accept to never be among the best or they could dope like the best. I am still naive enough to hope that the problem is withering and Froome, Contador, Aru, Nibali etc. are the first generation of non-doped riders. That's probably a pipe dream though....

[@vaitalv9361]

Holdin' yeah Armstrong really made a show of the whole thing. He would've got more respect if he didn't bully everyone around him & publicly condemning doping while bragging about passing tests at that time. If you're secretly doing something shady, at least give it the courtesy of not going around shaming it.

[@SedonaMTB]

Thank you Floyd!

[@chrislene2747]

He left out one part about doping and comparing to training at altitude… the reason they don’t train for long periods of time at altitude is… increasing red blood cells via altitude vs adding via your own blood volume would be, the change in thickness (viscosity) when you dope, the blood stays thin. When training at altitude, you thicken the blood, thus create a slower diffusion rate of the O2 to the muscles.

They had banners up all over the town, dedicated to and praising Floyd. Even though I knew something was wrong about the whole situation, I didn't give it too much thought. But as soon as he was found out, which was later that year, if I'm not mistaken, those banners came down faster than a fat man on a water slide. Needless to say, his name wasn't even uttered, at least not in a good way, in town since. I currently live about 15min outside of Murrieta and the impact still resonates.

One of the problems with trying to defend the indefensible is, you can't smoke your specious horseshit past everyone, and in targeting people who are watching what you'd prefer they didn't watch, you're pissing up a rope.

Danfuerth Gillis Those riders were also hopped up on drugs. Don’t kid yourself.

[@briseboy]

@@JK-vc7ie Merely different drugs. Notice how the present uses more feeding and much more hydration, and how the riders retain fat way into season, even into the big stage races.. Uphill takes you down, and one can't win unless at low bodyfat there. Methamphetamines were once the drug of choice, but can cause catastrophic systemic failures. Speed also measurably decreases neural and glial composition, and causes greater loss of both types of brain cells. I keep up with neuroimaging research for correlative purposes in cognitive science , and can tell you now, that that is why competitors using such substances have a lower mean lifespan than the norm, and that using individuals rarely reach old age with strong cognitive capacities when they survive beyond average at all. Such issues as efficient insulin response affect health in other ways as well, and organs like liver and kidneys are susceptible over time to artificially interfering with one's responses, which self-train naturally over time; artificial interference tends to introduce molecules one'sself-system recognize as foreign, scarring those and some other organs, causing early death. Life is an adventure, and being early demented precludes understanding of the astonishing excitement inn a complex world. As a professional in a sport and art requiring extreme reflex coordination and neural response, since teen years and into middle age, I immediately recognized upon trial the deleterious effects of cannabis, alcohol, and other drugs, choosing instead to strive for aware excellence. Self-blood doping assists in endurance sports, and is the safest method of cheating in sport (this was known since 1960s Finn Lasse Viren's use), But I do not recommend it, as cheating itself creates what can be described accurately as a self-induced psychological dementia, form which it is difficult to recover later, if at all.

they had bigger legs = steroids. watch old videos of them steamrolling like a freight train up the mountains at very low cadence and rocking their bodies in rhythm. the amount of torque pumping out of their legs for such long periods of times only possible with biological aide.

[@itsianwood]

Very revealing. When watching his tour 2017 podcasts I could get the feel that he was bully

[@pavanatanaya]

Woodygun69 yeah, Armstrong is still a douche. He still banks on the same old tactics

[@johnbarrick4836]

You got to take no prisoners to be the best. And if your own team rats you out you take them out as well that was his mentality I don’t blame him but it’s a lonely life that way. Basketball legends are this way you should se Jordan at events he lets kids no he’s the legend and some people think it’s cool and others think he’s a dick.

Sang like a canary.

[@acewilliams7917]

How is he singing like a canary when Lance Armstrong got himself in trouble long time ago? Can't tell on somebody who already been caught.

[@e.aenterprises105]

@@acewilliams7917 No. Floyd provided the testimony to cement what was already hearsay. His testimony brought down the entire professional ranks for which the UCI had no choice but to hang Lance for it all at risk of the sport itself losing hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue, not to mention reputation. Surely, you weren't shocked to hear of doping when the scandal broke? Why couldn't Landis have kept quiet and drop off the back of the peloton so to speak as his predecessors did?

[@acewilliams7917]

@@e.aenterprises105 Ok, I understand more clearly now, thanks for clearing that up. Was I suprised? Yes and no, surprised because of Armstrongs cheating, because of his dominant performance of a swan song to end his career, but not suprised because of baseballs drug scandal, so it was no surprise that it would go on in cycling, or any other sport for that matter. Especially, the guy after Armstrong retired, he was tested positive for performance drugs as well. After that happened that was enough for me to understand.

[@e.aenterprises105]

@@acewilliams7917 Indeed. Sadly (and not in defense of Armstrong in any way) none of his sponsors, endorsers nor the international cycling body for that matter returned a single cent of the astronomical profits gained through the Lance Armstrong entity. Not for a single moment was the issued raised with any of the whistle blowers, that prior to turning professional, the use or practice of doping was a completely new concept to them. Floyd may be respected for his candidacy and insight, but I feel he is just as complicit.

[@NxDoyle]

At the very top of this segment, with the title card and "In 2003, tell about the time you were stopped by customs agents..." I had to hit pause because I was almost convinced that the playback speed was 0.75x. So I checked it, realised it was normal, then slid back to the top. Without the possible benefit of sounding and looking slowed down, Bensinger comes across like a fucking stroke victim. And if you _do_ drop it back to 0.5x, it's great.

[@morrissamuels5984]

He obviously worshipped Lance and when things did not go his way, he turned against him. I never took a liking to Lance. I always thought it was too good to be true. Besides Contador was genuinely better than him at that time.
