Agreed, as fixed. There can exist good and bad in the same person, and the good doesn't necessarily excuse the bad. I greatly admire and respect his determination, inspiration, and charity. And I think he was a likely-doping, slightly-overrated, arrogant one-trick-pony of a bike racer who treated many talented current and former teammates like total crap. (Okay, that last sentence is admittedly a bit overstated, but you get the idea -- I can be a fan of Lance the anti-cancer crusader without being a fan of Lance the cyclist.)
