I just had to post about this.

There's so much goodness in these letters, I just don't know where to start. I learnt today that Hamilton and Evans are definitely clean (he can just tell, all the way from Australia), that Millar gave a full confession, that neither Armstrong nor the entire USPS team ever failed a dope test, and the fact that several riders were really really quick up Plateau de Beille last TDF means that the performance of those riders isn't actually that good. I also learnt that if you post a fast time on a never-to-be-repeated, down-hill, tailwind TT, that you are thereby disqualified from talking about a repeat performance on a hill in a mountain stage of the Tour.
That god for the readers of Cyclingnews. I haven't learnt so much in a long time.
