Watched it on the all things gym link. Dunno if same one. But quite good. Still think its amazing how much press he's got for it.

Found it funny when he says if I didn make the comeback we wouldn't be here. Haha.

Also do people think other teams and competitors were not using? Granted not all but a lot must have been.

I hope he was truthful when he said he didn't dope/juice for his 2 comeback races in 2009-10.

As for other teams/racers using.

Goes without saying there would/will be others doing & still doing now. In Graham O'Bree's book "The Flying Scotsman" he names & shames one cycling outfit that wanted him to race for them. His contract lasted less than 24 hours IIRC. There was a clause in his contract that stated how much he had to pay for "medical expenses/insurance" which I think was £10,000 at the time. He was told he either agree or he was out of the team. He's an intelligent man & knew dam well what it was for so told them to shove it.

In the 80's Ben Johnson was the drugs cheat poster boy. And has been for years since.

Then in the 90's it was Dwaine Chambers.

Now in the 2010's it's Lance Armstrong.
