The wheel is round...

The sport of cycling has once again hit the headlines for the wrong reasons, this time the sport's golden boy "Lance Armstrong" is under fire after being named by the disgraced cyclist Floyd Landis who claimed that the 7 time champion paid officials to prevent his positive doping tests from becoming public and that the man who started "Live Strong" used performance enhancing drugs during his career. The thing is cycling is already in a bad way with the countless amount of so called "athletes" being busted for doping, they cannot afford to have Armstrong associated with any doping. Guilty or not, "the golden boy of cycling" is the face of the sport and if he goes down, the entire sport will come crashing down. A former cyclist told me that if they are not winning they are not doping. I ask you, where is the credibility, a lot will have to be done to fix doping in cycling. Good luck.
