This is a surprise to no one. Especially the guys that finished behind him thinking, “No way”.

So you endorse a witch hunt based upon jealousy and nothing more? Sorry, but the USADA should put up or shut up. He never failed a drug test and they’ve produced nothing to prove otherwise.

That's not what they're thinking, they're saying thank God, not me........

You don't win the TDF on your own and you don't win it by outdistancing your opponents by miles and miles and miles. You win it by accumulating points over stages of the entire course with most of those stages being helped by teammates. And those stages being won by mere seconds.

Of all the individual time trials, how many of them did he actually win and was the same scrutiny given to the actual winner?

Armstrong was a great cyclist but he was also helped by equally great teammates.......
