It's a long story, but I lived through it. I still cherish my pre-Trek Lemond bike.
F-word every Lance fanboi who called Lemond a crybaby, or claimed Lemond ever doped. Lemond was the ONLY champion (in the history of professional cycling) who advocated for increased doping controls WHILE HE WAS WINNING.
I've seen dozens of Armstrong fanbois in this forum attack Lemond and claim "they're all dopers anyway". Eff them and eff the Treks they rode in on. Cycling was a better sport before Armstrong and Trek, and it will be a better sport once it's cleansed of both.
What I like most about cycling is how it brings people together regardless of backgrounds or interests the bond is our love of riding bicycles. Except those “effers” who ride Treks!
