It's Not About the Bike
A Dutch investigator appointed by the International Cycling Union cleared Lance Armstrong on Wednesday (31st May, 2006) on charges of doping during the 1999 Tour de France, the first of seven he won consecutively, and strongly criticized international anti-doping authorities. Lance has retired from competitive racing to devote himself to the fight against cancer, has strongly denied using banned substances during the 1999 Tour or any other race. "The report confirms my innocence," Armstrong said in a statement.

Lance was diagnosed with testicular cancer on 2nd October, 1996. In 1997, he founded the Lance Armstrong Foundation (LAF), firmly believing that in the battle with cancer, unity is strength, knowledge is power and attitude is everything. Its mission is to inspire and empower people with cancer. We serve our mission through education, advocacy, public health and research programs.

Lance's tale goes beyond mere survival but his continual fight to live strong. Lance's book, It's Not About The Bike, is an inspiring tale of facing life's challenges with an attitude.
