Lance, do you know that the Crit Intl is run in France by ASO? Why do you think "the French" would be any more friendly at that race than at the Tour?

This whole thing is ridiculous. Bring on the Vino and hold the Astana from any useful races.

Not sure if this one has already been asked:

Lance will you submit to a Lie Detector test for questions relating to the the issue of drug taking specific to you or your Disco team mates?

and perhaps one question about the simeoni incident.

We're hoping to get some time with Lance Armstrong in the coming weeks and would like to include some questions from readers of Procycling and users of the Bikeradar forums for him. So if there's anything you would like to ask Lance this is your chance as long as it is within the bounds of decency, legality and won't cause offence to anyone.

Questions can be posted below or sent to procycling@futurenet.co.uk

We'll put the best of them to Lance when we get some face time with him

Um...so, Ricco, Kohl, Piepoli and you still bought the mags. Floyd, Basso, Puerto and you bought the mags. Schumacher, Ullrich, Riis and you bought the mags. Vinokourov and you bought the mags.

But a man who won 7 TDFs, was never caught for doping (and never failed any test other than for using a saddle-sore cream) says he wants to ride again and has submitted to the UCI passport program and you're no longer buying the mags. Sure makes sense. :roll:

richard wants a baum

Did he say anything about doping, went through the whole nine pages and found he mentioned it once on page two about how LA felt about them. Maybe Mr donrhummy just doesnt want to read yet ANOTHER article with the same questions the same answers in it. Because even though the black list has been thrown out NO one is going to ask LA the tough questions lest they cope THE stare.

You do realise the irony of mentioning Landis, Basso, Ullrich and Riis as dopers in one paragraph and then defending Armstrong in the next because he was never caught don't you?

Here's some breaking news, the drugs may work but the tests sure as hell don't.

Basso, Ullrich and Riis never failed tests either (Well, aside from Jan's disco biscuit incident)

I have faith the PC article on HRH will be a good one - Some of my questions should be in there Although Ed Pickering over at the competition asked a few of them already...

Moomaloid

I would like him to be asked if he can understand the full scale of the skepticism about his achievements. Especially when u consider the amount of previous team mates, and past adversaries that have since proved positive.

I think that a pretty safe way of asking... would be very interested in his answer...

You missed the point. Donrhummy was condemning Basso, Ullrich and Riis as dopers yet all were caught through police action or admission after someone else blew the whistle and none of them ever failed a test. Armstrong may have never failed a test, although that is a moot point following the l'Equipe story in 2005, but somehow that makes him credible.

It's a shame no-one has ever tried to follow the money and find out how much LA paid Michele Ferrari for those 'training' programmes. I'll wager it was a significant sum.

Doesn't legend have it that Ferrari took between 10 to 15% of a rider's salary.

Armstrong's salary at USPS was supposed to be $215,000 when he joined, but was up to $4,000,000 by 2003.

I think Ferrari was involved with Armstrong until 2004.

SpaceJunk

In light of the news that Lance (and girlfriend) are expecting, by natural conception too, my new question is 'how?' I thought, reading his two books, this wasn't possible.

This guy is a miracle worker!
