It's taking place in his home too. What's betting it's in the room with the maillot jaunes above?

Classic Lance - you come to me.

Random bit of analysis I just stumbled across (not actually read it I'm afraid as I couldn't care less so can't comment on the content).

Twenty quid says he has a little cry, and gets everyone on side!

From here
Quote
Armstrong told Tygart: "You don't hold the keys to my redemption," he said. "There's one person who holds the keys to my redemption," he went on, pointing at himself, "and that's me."

Nicole Cooke retired yesterday and she spoke a lot about doping
Quote
I can't help thinking that the cheats win on the way up and the way down.
Quote
"When Lance cries on Oprah later this week and she passes him a tissue, spare a thought for all of those genuine people who walked away with no reward,” Cooke said. "Tyler Hamilton will make more money from a book describing how he cheated than I will make in all my years of honest labour."
As an aside she hasn't had nearly enough recognition for her achievements.

I'm slightly surprised by what he has said in this interview, I had expected him to maintain a stance of more denial.

I don't think he had a chance to keep denying any more!

Sounds is ok on this but image rubbish

Indeed. A very basic summary of it seems to be:

I got caught up in the lie.
I was a jerk.
I am going to spend a lot of time trying to get people to forgive me.
I am an idiot.

Will see what the second part is like, but he seems to have done the bare minimum possible, probably exactly in line with what his lawyers said he should say.  Very calculated.

Cav trying to make a point

Quote from: Cav
We don’t assume every current BBC presenter is a sexual deviant because of what Jimmy Savile and his cronies were doing in the 1970s.

So why are we carrying the can for Lance and his inner circle?

I see his point as seems goalposts being moved. I think he has seen it all and until there is total transparency will still have suspicions. It's a shame as I like Sky, Wiggins and Froome and want to believe them but I see the point of the doubters. I wonder what we would all think if it wasn't a UK team?!

Think this is the Twitter link
 https://mobile.twitter.com/PaulKimmage/tweets

There is a great link to a French article on there about Lances positive cover up test, someone's put an English link.

Recent? It was during the tour, not quite recent!

I heard on the radio this morning that there are proofs of Mario Cipollini's doping to be coming out soon. Epo and hormones they said.
