He's must be pretty damn good at hiding them, since he gets tested all the time. People have tried the drug conspiracy for...oh, about seven years now, and it's never stuck.

The fact is, he was one of the best pre-cancer, and the training he put himself through to get himself back into cycling shape turned him into the best ever.

And, I'll agree, the Tour won't be front-page news next year. It will be in 2012 if whoever wins it next year wins it in 2007, 2008, 2009, and so on.

Sure, it's just bike riding, but it's the best just bike riding anyone has ever done in the history of just bike riding, and that's pretty damned impressive. Hate on the sport, hate on the man, but no one can deny that this is a phenomenal feat for anyone, be they American, French, British, or Kenyan.
