We all know that he probably did not dope from 2000 onwards, but even if he did, by your logic all of his opponents were doping as well, so it made no difference. He deserved every single one of those wins and the praise. He truly is one of the greats.

And to come back now at this age is again an amazing inspiration to people. You know that. And look at the higher profile the Tour has been given this year, with almost twice as many fans on the streets. On every level the man is good news.

Lastly on the sponsor. It's a better sponsor than most for the Tour de France these days - i don't see anything odd about it at all.

I know you see this as a bit of fun, and yes it is fun - it's only cycling - but you don't half take a lot of bollocks. You're one bitter and twisted individual. Most of what you say is simply assertion. Nobody with a brain is buying it.

In my opinion he's shown that it is at least "possible" to get through it and accomplish something in life. I'm sure his demonstration of that possibility has indeed helped many people get through cancer. I've never had cancer, and I don't know many people that have in reality..so it's hard for me to speculate what they think when they consider Lance.

(Now, where can we get some EPO?? )
