Lance Armstrong Responds to Twitter Mishap

[RandSbikes]

Johnny Hogg!!!! WHO ARE YOU... MY SURNAME IS HOGG TOO!

[hailedog]

You're a good man Lance.

[hellsadore]

A doped psychopath !

[onelooktothestars]

Whether he doped or not, I find his comeback from cancer inspirational. He had a disease that kills so many people and he not only beat it, but he won 7 Tours and used his position in the media spotlight to raise awareness. I think that's the most important thing to remember. Also, call me naive, but I'm choosing to believe he didn't dope - he's the most tested man in the sport; if he was doping, I'm pretty sure they'd have some evidence by now. Why can't we focus on the positive?

[IROCK80551]

@Dart11112 Um I pressed the thumbs down on your comment but the was an acceident! I meant to thumbs it up cause it is pretty funny that he does that. lol

[david7fighter]

lance is one of my heroes, keep it strong all the way lance thanks for being exist and inspiring.

[TheNorthernTom]

Dope

[datboysha40]

Lance you made TREK an ICON company!

[jflash214]

his level of self absorption is unrivaled.

[AussieTheOztralian]

Lance Armstrong = Biggest cheater on Earth.

[hellsadore]

@trakomako In 1999 there was no EPO test available, all samples of 1999 TDF were tested around 2003 during the validation process of a new EPO test, that was just a scientific testing done according higher requierement than usual anti-doping testing. Unfortunately for Lance, the scientific results report was given to Damien Ressiot who seek for matching the key of positive samples with names of riders. So he joined Armstrong to have his doping forms then he has identified Armstrong's samples

[hellsadore]

@trakomako Of course he used drugs, especially EPO then switched on blood transfusion. 8 of his 13 samples of 199 TDF had clearly EPO inside.

[iprestonc]

Just so you know, the more you sweat the higher your hematocrit rate will rise. how many people think riding a bike like 100 miles won't make you sweat?

[hellsadore]

@iprestonc If your hematocrit rises from 41 to 48% by sweation so that means that you have a very severe dehydration (20%), you will finish in hospital and you are not competitive especially for TDF stage. You should know that more dehydrated is an athlete, weaker he is, 5% of dehydration means 10% less strength.

[iprestonc]

@hellsadore I get my Hematocrit checked twice a week and after cycling in the Texas heat, it typically does not rise this much. You are right about that. But 48% is not severely dehydrated, as you say. 45% or 46% is normal. You don't spell or write as good as my doctor.

[hellsadore]

@iprestonc I didn't mention earlier that hematocrit of riders on TDF were/is checked in the morning before satges... so no reason to be dehydrated for any riders. So the 48% of Lance was only the result of EPO abuse or blood transfusion.

[iprestonc]

@hellsadore HMM...COULD YOU EXPLAIN WHAT YOU MEAN?(no reason to be dehydrated for any riders)

[iprestonc]

@hellsadore 41%=hydrated...48%=dehydrated

[hellsadore]

@iprestonc Hematocrit is checked before the races or stages, so Lance would have had bad performances for such stages raced with a such dehydration.

Something is clearly wrong with your position.

Doping is the more likely explanation, especially with what we have learned from his ex-team mates.

[LeArchives]

Almost seems sarcastic... or he's very indiffernt about everybody...

[00Pedro]

If you read his book he explains that he trains at altitude before races to increase his red blood cell levels- he doesn't transfuse.

[u368]

@00Pedro Even by training at altitude, it's not possible to increase hematocrit from 41% to 48% !

BTW hematocrit drops by 5-7 points during a race like TDF, so when Lance had 48% at the end of TDF, we can be sure that he blood doped.

That is coherent with EPO found in his 1999 samples and with his 2009 blood values suggesting that he got 3 blood tranfusion during TDF.

[onetotwelve1]

Hogg is one of the 6 who click the dislike button. LOL

[superfisto]

email address is like a phone number

[bminks96]

dude during the 99 tour they didnt even have a test for epo. SO I dont know how he could have failed. Do a little reasearch before you pipe up mrcardio9r.

[jiggymoondust]

Elderly woman behind the counter in a small town.awesome

[jamesdavid3]

Where is the video which he is talking about?

The one when he sends his email out?

[mrcardio9r]

He didn't beat an EPO test. He tested positive something like 8 times for EPO in the 99' tour. From 00' and on he switched to doing blood transfusions which has been proven via his blood values. Hematocrit isn’t supposed to rise just hours upon a 6 plus hour very strenuous cycling event but for some odd reason (doping) Lance DOPEstrong’s do. He’s never won the tour legitimately.

[mrcardio9r]

[KodiakAlpha]

Wish he made a "How to video" on "Blood Enhancement", I've got a 10 yr old daughter who can use any help she can get with her cycling career.

[hghepo]

Now that Lance is under investigation for doping, for fraud, for corruption and maybe more... that makes sense.

[wilsc449]

Pearl Jam is playing in the background :)

[skdflsdkf]

just a legend

[Bhousm76]

what is hogg getting out of that? that dude needs to get a life....

[u368]

@b5e5n1n9y86 No i have sent just an email to Lance to say him that he is big doper and fraud!

[tuftspmc]

Lance is the ball (get it?)

[hill1916]

Thumbs up if anybody sent Hogg an "have your own medicine" email:-)

[kiskiw]

I love all the people on this commenting about supposed doping, have any of you even followed his career? Have you bothered to pick up any one of the dozens of books written about him? How many of you "posters" have accomplished an ounce of the things that Lance has in his life so far?...not to mention what he has done for people fighting cancer around the world, and being a cancer survivour himself prior to winning 7 Tours!! LiveStrong Lance! Thank you for who you are and what you stand for!

[famousltd]

rofl Lance rocks!!! bahaha

[J0NNO]

I hear Pearl Jam :)

excellent choice.

[scottiewazhere9407]

@alfie677 really?

[snoboardkid122]

pearl jam is playing in the backround

[fjt1976]

Cheat!

[Pleaver]

I love how he outs Adrew Hogg's email address. So funny. Thanks for inspiring so many folks Lance. Keep it up. You a bad MF.

[gondwanalon]

Hey Lance-o! Stay out of France-o! Give someone else-o, a stinking chance-o!

[eugejnr1]

i was lookin back at you to see if you were lookin back at me to if i was lookin back at you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!yo beeeeeeeeeen had!

[Ajax17x]

lol, Lance you are great person.

[mrleroy1966]

Cheater.Cheater.Cheater.Cheate­r.

[1love1heart402]

I'm naming my Daughter Lance as well!

[mummyfunster]

I always get the same tense feeling in my stomach when i hear Lance - the same as when the boss calls me in for a "chat". I can imagine he's got a sense of humour, but I certainly wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of him! He should give up racing in a few years and go into politics.

[rin7s]

i Love u LANCE , u r LEGEND , i couldn't say anythings else ;-)

[x1y1l1e1m]

They gonne be trollin hogg's email.

[hayta9]

47. presidential cycling tour of turkey

please come ;)

[hinduleech]

powerdoper

[tommo2785]

I still don't understand why people always get up and down accusing him of being a drug cheat.

I remember reading somewhere that he is the most tested athlete in history, it was in the order of 24 times a year. That is a massive amount of testing. They still didn't find anything. How many times can you keep looking with out finding anything before it is concluded that there is nothing to find.

[jacques256]

lance speak french i understand nothing

[monos70]

"her name will be Lance".....WHOA!!!! well, to each its own.

[jflash214]

really amazed at how self absorbed this guy is, it reeks of desperation. just checked out his twitter and much of the same. horrible for twitter.

[u368]

Good point so you cheat to win big money then you start a charity foundation, you request that people make donations then you are allowed to escape for your frauds.

If Lance were giving his own money I would accept but he took $2M to race TDU and GIRO after having said that his comeback was for cancer and he would race for free. That seems another lie for me.

[turbocarr]

@u368 Who paid him the $2M?

[u368]

@turbocarr

Lance was paid to race by the region of Australia and by GIRO !

[turbocarr]

@u368 I believe Lance promised to race for a team for free, and me kept his promised. Reason, he makes more than enough from endorsements, royalties, etc.

[hghepo]

He said he was back for cancer too but refused to speak to press in Italia, not very coherent. A man alleged fighting cancer who asks $150.000for a speech about cancer cannot be taken as serious.

[FoxxyBrown1111]

That´s all Epo-Lance-Fanatics can do: They cry out loud and calling names, because they have no arguments to defend this Doper. You people have a special kind of autism.

[davidoffon]

A Yellow Johnny is one that on workig a cheep trick , comes across disease, either repelling it or taking it on board as a masking agent,he is just wonderless, our Pance Arsewrong

[mackpappy]

God, what a douche... and a doper... I'm a cancer survivor, BTW. The way he uses cancer to shield himself from any hint of impropriety is just sad, and does a disservice to anyone who values honesty and transparency. All hail Pharmstrong!

[u368]

People who don't believe in Lance's doping should read Dr. Ashenden's interview about EPO 1999 TDF EPO samples of Lance on velocitynation website.

They can read Dr. Morkeberg statement about Lance' s 2009 blood values too.

Do you believe that it's normal to have Lance 20% stronger than Hinault or Lemond? BTW 20-30% is the advantage given by blood manipulation (EPO or transfusion).

[FoxxyBrown1111]

Haha, Lance even talked about the mails of Pharmstrong and Epo-Lance. Now he knows what REAL cycling fans think of him. Only the Epo-Lance-Fanatics stay blind.

But on one thing you are wrong: Epo gives "just" 2-3 % performance boost in well trained world class athletes. But thats still enough to gain a minute here and there on mountain stages, culmulating in 7-TdF-"Wins". Also not to forget: he got a free pass using testosterone since his cancer & that his hompage is for PROFIT-ONLY purposes

[zenmachinefilms]

Don't get the point of this. How many wrongs does it take to make a right?

[tybo09]

So let me get this straight: Winning 7 Tours De France: easy.

Featuring a video: hard.

I can feature a video, so umm, where can I get a bike? LOL

[AntMcL1]

Love the way Lance repeats Hogg's email address! Lance you are a legend! :)

[reallyletsdoit]

@AntMcL1 ya totally the greatest

[Carouselzero]

I love how he keeps giving out that guys email so we can all send him hate mail and he'll see how it feels. Lance is awesome

[forza599]

hahaha yeah that was hilarious

[mcnutty93]

Lance is absolutely my hero. The hardships he faced with cancer and his amazing athletic abilities together make the greatest role model. Your book it's not about the bike is my favorite book and it is truly inspirational.

[curtmastor]

You know Lance has a history of being an arrogant jerk and a narcisist (sp?). I cant comment on any of those accusation but it's pretty cool to see him joking about doping comments. No one in baseball, football, or track and feild would be that down to earth with their fans. If at all with anyone. So though Im totally sold, and probably never will be, on the church of Lance I say he seems like a decently cool dude.

[Olomarco]

...and listens to Pearl Jam.

my hero.

[videolover61]

All right, all right...calm down...that's not even needed here. Lance is about love, so remember that!!!

[sgreenfly]

an absolute inspiration my friend, compastionate, true, honest,winner,survivor,hero to many please keep it going.

[downdavyjoneslocker]

Lance Armstrong is a cool guy.

[TheRunningManDM]

whenever I feel like quitting he pops into my head inspiring me on

what a legend

[racrdan]

Hero.

[monkeypunch76]

You're a stud! At the age of 37 doing what you're doing. You gave my wife goose bumps when you were riding and I told her that you had such a long layoff and to be that competitive! Keep it up!

[angrygunsmith]

cool, nice tour lance, cooda done better, but next year hope u win with the radioshack team, cannot wait!!

[krglongbourn]

i love your integrity and soul for your sport and many who aspire to ride as well as you and your other bikers..keep teaching us all the ruth..

[fx2demm]

LIVESTRONG

[william787]

Why do people put Lance down? He is great, whats he ever done to you people and he is down to earth. Im only 15 but i have more sense than some of you. Well done Lance, keep it going.

[xxicubusxx]

Lance Armstrong,

I just wanted to say thank you for being such a great inspiration to me! don't listen to any of those negative people. What you're doing inspires many.

[dessam2]

whtever you all say! i love the guy! i will love Lance forever! he is an inspiration to all cancer survivors! the guy deserve some respect for tht!!!

[Meshwork123]

G'day yeaheverday

Mate, you should tone your comments. Lighten up. You don't handle stress very well, do you?

Take it easy son. Geez.

[s123rew]

lance must be whispering the sound is not very loud

[Meshwork123]

Lance, if you're reading this, it amazes me how your critics - like those below - don't realise how cowardly they are with their insulting remarks.

How easy it is to make criticisms, hiding behind one's keyboard...

Mesh

[TirnanUFC]

Agreed.

[racketer]

grow up

[yeaheverday]

Mind ya business !

[racketer]

get a life you sad person. Writing comments like that on youtube means its anyones bussiness since your writing them on a public website. Mabey keep them to yourself if you don't want anyone else to comment you freak

[Truth666]

Execution now, ultimate example of blindness to who the conspirators are.

MARCO PANTANI was murdered, Lance will be executed by WAda in the next days with blood samples.

Google

doping conspiracy Matt Marriott

Armstrong like Urllrich was or like Usain Bolt , they are ALL victims of a conspiracy set up by the illuminati, in control of WADA and most importamt. of the US and EU governments.

Some goals

-advance BIG PHARMA agendas

- terrorize citîzens

- destroy natural sport (running, cycling)

[racketer]

[dardo1201]

Cheap shot to give out that guy, Hogg, email address. Nasty, very nasty and vindictive side to Lance. Don`t believe me??? Check out the stage 18 of 2004 TDF, concerning Italian cyclist Filippo Simeoni and Armstrong....... judge for yourself.

[cmille20]

hey jollysincere

you are a dus**^#@bag,

If you knew anything about cycling and the man's career

you wouldn't post such a ignorant comment!

[m350cnh]

that andrew guy is well a dick, why be a fan on twitter if you dont like Lance?

[willemstockton]

juan pelota is the coffee shop in mellow jonnies.... thats a bike shop here in town. but i get most of my stuff over at Yellowbike. Collective members get wholesale.. Nearly worth the 10 hours a week of volunteer work. Keep it up man. Austin is proud of you. Why don't you support the Master Bicycle Plan? We could use your voice.

[jollysincere]

why would you want a cheat to be involved with your plan. Lance Armstrong is a cheat. I HATE CHEATERS!!!!!!! DOPER!

[willlyyyyy]

love you Lance!! i saw you in Italy on May!! it was so amazing!!!

[Hyacinthia]

That email thing was too funny, Lance...I usually check your Tweets a few times a day & almost fell off my chair when I saw that one! BTW--hilarious on the meaning of "JP"! 'Just adds yet another reason to love you & your great spirit. My adored young husband had the initials of JP also: I lost him to cancer (multiple myeloma) in 1999, & my dad to Hodgkin's Lymphoma when I as 5 :( You will always be an icon to me for living so strong & inspiring millions in your fight against this scourge.

[cicirunner]

Hey Lance, I wish you would respond to my twitter messages, but it's cool lol. I know you're busy. You are an inspiration and I hope you are able to ride in the tour this year. A few months ago, I biked 1000 miles in 13 days
