With this morning’s revelation that 2006 Tour de France victor Floyd Landis has flunked a drug test, I might have to finally accept the most sobering reality of all :
Lance Armstrong was the only competitive cyclist on the planet who wasn’t cheating. Maybe even the only person who has looked at a bicycle and not been on something. Well, that, or he’s the only guy who managed to stay one step ahead of the investigators. And it is all about being the best, I suppose.
I’m holding judgment for the second test. I feel like Landis was at a certain disadvantage in comparison to Lance for the particular test he failed (testosterone).
