Just finished 'The End of the Road' by Alisdair Fotheringham (about the 1998 Tour, Festina etc.) and can recommend for anyone that wants a reminder of why some of us remain cynical about doping in cycling. The retelling of the events is well written and engaging, but the pay off is the long final chapter which examines both the immediate and ongoing impact of the scandal(s), what it meant for Armstrong and how it can still be seen to be impacting cycling today.
Recommended for anyone that doesn't understand why I think Pantani is a doping nobber :-)
