Press Release Summary: Floyd Landis Was Found Guilty In His Doping Trial Held In
Paris, France This Week.



Press Release Body: He was supposed to be the new Lance Armstrong, a new hero and
an inspiration to kids everywhere that want to be just like him, instead he will be
known through out the cycling world as the first person in the entire history of
Cycling to be stripped of his title because of doping allegations.
Landis always proclaimed his innocence from the get go, but he tested positive for
doping specifically for using a synthetic form of testosterone.
The way how he won the 2006 Tour de France was the things you only saw in the
movies, the man was almost out of the race and in the toughest part of it the
Alpine stage, this is an uphill demolisher and him being able to take the lead from
the start of this stage raised some serious questions among the experts in regards
if he had a little boost, besides will power to make such an incredible comeback
and win the Yellow Jersey.
Well, a French court looked at all the evidence presented by the USADA and found
Landis guilty, banning him for 2 years from professional cycling and took away his
Tour de France title.
Spanish rider Oscar Pereiro who came in second place will be the new Tour de France
title holder, he's just waiting for the official announcement, even Pereiro admits
that this is not the way you want to win any competition.
Floyd Landis still has a chance to present an appeal he has a month to think about
it, but he will have to invest a lot of money on this appeal if he goes thru with it
, given that he's not able to compete he can't earn money for the time being by
cycling.
Well, only time will tell if he goes for the appeal if he's guilty or innocent.
