lemond is a ******. the guy looks and talks like john ritter.
everyone knows doping was common in merckx's time and well before, esp. with uppers. lemond has repeatedly claimed that he believes the peleton started doping in his last year (when he couldn't keep up). that's way fishy. by chance the year he loses it everyone started doping? that's implausible even if you take away the knowledge that doping was common knowledge.
