Why do people hate Lance?

Armstrong also relied on steroids, testosterone and blood bags did he not?

Just wished to point out that the scientific experiment referred to earlier used no professional cyclists for the obvious reason that no professional cyclist could participate in a test of EPO.

I would imagine that a lot of riders use steroids. I know Wiggins did, for his really, really bad hayfever.

The blood-doping was a means of preventing the EPO (which science suggests doesn't work as a perfomance enhancer) from being detected wasn't it? I thought the idea was you stored 'clean' blood, to put back in later. I could be wrong though. Even thinking about bags of blood makes me feel a bit sick - I'm proper squeamish.

I don't know about testosterone, but without doing any research whatsoever, I'd imagine at one plum down he'd be producing less naturally than most riders?

To be a proper Lance fan you need to have a Lance tattoo;

Which you can then amend to show your love for space exploration

Good Lord - there is plenty of choice for that substitution.
