SSDD at UCI

B. Lafferty said:

UCI president Pat McQuaid said he did not understand Andreu's objectives in
revealing that he had used EPO.

"If Andreu wishes to say that, that's up to him to say that," said McQuaid.

"I don't know what he's trying to achieve because he cannot achieve anything
by saying this."

McQuaid said neither admission should cast doubt on Armstrong's record or
his 1999 Tour victory.

"To take dope is an individual decision by an individual rider," said
McQuaid.

Do you honestly expect him to say different? We all know what's going
on up at the top.

I had hoped that he would given his statements about cleaning up the sport.
I guess not.

I was surprised too. At least he could have said it was good that
users were speaking up and helping us face the issue. So, do you think
Armstrong got to him directly, or is he just falling back into UCIness
(ie circle the wagons) ?

He had such statements but withheld them? Is this the "code of
silence?" You're a law-yer, explain the code to everyone.
