A stunning thread from the Leadville discussion group at Yahoo. Lance keeps his win done as a doped cyclist. Some weekend warriors clearly have a doping problem.

I was with Ken Chlouber yesterday and helping Merilee get him packed and on
his way to Asia to climb an 8,000 meter mountain in Pakistan. I asked him
about Lance. His answer: “Lance is and will always be our Leadville Trail
100 Mountain Bike Champion”. You would expect nothing less from Ken &
Merilee!

Please don’t jack my thread with your opinions on his innocence or guilt -
there is plenty of that all over the web.
My question relates to the Leadville 100.
Does Lance keep his 2009 win/trophy/buckle?
p.s. Thank you Lance for coming out to the pre-rider meeting this year, I
will remember it forever.

The USADA does not have the authority to take any wins away from him. Leadville is no different.

Dan:
The USADA is polluting the sport. They should have never jumped into the storm. Whether or not Lance violated the rules (with the majority of the peloton) is irrelevant. He helped make this race what it is. He also helped raise more than $500M for cancer research and treatment. In my view, it is therefore a legit subject for the forum. Who cares if the UCI (a bunch of French axxholes) takes his titles away. Fortunately enough, it appears that the promoters of this event appreciate what he has done for the sport, the Leadville 100 MTB race; and society. If you prefer to hear endless threads about how starting in the back coral cost some fat guy from Dakota a small belt buckle, that is fine. But for me personally, I would also like to read about the injustice of the USADA focusing on a guy, seven years after the fact, that may contribute to the treatment of my mother’s cancer. Stop looking at your handlebars. There is a world beyond your Garmin.

Rode the race before Lance, rode during Lance, riding after Lance. He is an Icon and I have a signed jersey on my wall from the Leadville 100 that I am very proud of. He signed next the Ken, Rebecca, Dave, Max and many others…. Hope the best for him. Every time I sit on the trainer, watching the DVD’s, I am proud to be a part of those races. Without him, the video never would have been made, the world might not be as exposed to this race. At least this spices up the thread during a usually slow time till it all starts again…..
Hope you are getting pumped watched the Pro cycling Challenge!! Very exciting today and tomorrow could be more. What better way to rest up before the training begins again.
