    On my way home from doing intervals yesterday, I just happened to look back
    and saw them coming up from behind. I hopped up on the sidewalk to let them
    by and as they passed Lance said "hey" so I said "hey" in return. I wasn't
    about to get in their line but I did ride in the caravan behind them for ~5
    miles or so. They were just cruising at 20-22 mph. Damn follow cars were
    kicking up so much dirt that I bailed. Then I had a funny thought... what
    would that chicken sh!t Lafferty have done?

    He would have asked for an autograph.

    Like a little [censored].

    Morons, I'd ask him if Emma and Swart are telling the truth and a few other
    questions based on reading Walsh's book.

    It's neat reading about the first-person encounters in the article and here.

    I have a Subaru-Montgomery cap that LANCE tossed to me from the podium
    (second-place position) in SLC in 1991. I really need to get it
    autographed someday.

    Good point. Trouble is, Walsh doesn't know [censored] either. If he did,
    don't you think LANCE's ass would be in the grinder by now?

    Then why is Armstrong fighting so hard to keep the book from coming out in
    English? Because that's where he makes his endorsement money? I haven't
    heard Armstrong say that anything in the book is untrue, particularly as to
    Emma O'Reilly. I don't recall his having said the conversations with Swart
    at Motorola didn't take place.

    FartKnocker-

    I've read a number of english translations of the "juicy parts".

    The only reason to be able to speak french is to make clear to the
    rude [censored] just how, with few exceptions, [censored] they are.
    That includes French Canadians too. 98% [censored].

    Baseless accusations read the same in any language.

    Robert, the disadvantage I face in being relatively new to rbr is that I
    don't necessarily get your jokes, but google is my friend...

    google "pizza" in rbr and the eighth result surely has the answer...
    http://groups-beta.google.com/group/rec.bicycles.racing/msg/b896f8ec8353561d

    Therefore, instead of defending the veracity of my story, I simply ask you
    this... how could you *possibly* consider me in the same class as Ronde
    Champ (yahoo, not crit pro version). I'm certainly much funnier (present
    post excluded), more handsome, quite polite, and definitely faster on a
    bike. Modest too. And I think I have more hair...barely.

    So, if I were to make up such a tale, you can bet your ass it would be
    better than this--sadly, this one is true. But I still hold out hope that
    someday I will have the opportunity to ride behind his 7+ W/kg up one of our
    hills and see first-hand how impressive it really is. I've been descending a
    couple of times and passed him as he was going up, once was clearly full
    gas-on. Were I going uphill instead, then, like a total dork, I would have
    ramped it up just to see how long I could hang. Fan mode off.

    Then I guess you better enlighten us all as to the damning information
    from that book which hasn't been translated. Pleas start a new topic
    about it. We are all dying to hear of this strong evidence against
    Armstrong which no one but those who can read [censored], I mean French, are
    privy to.

    The book is easy enough to come by. Order it from France or have a friend
    pick it up. No excuse to continue, by choice, as the ignorant moron that
    you are.

    Just as I suspected. There isn't [censored] in that book that can even be
    misconstrued as evidence beyond what has been translated. Which is
    still nothing.

    He's denied the accusations in the book. If you're waiting him to read
    every sentence from the book out loud and deny them each individually,
    it's never going to happen. The fact that he hasn't does not constitute
    compelling evidence of anything except his sanity.
