Greg LeMond has become the latest member of the cycling fraternity to call for the resignation of UCI president Pat McQuaid.
"People that really care about cycling have the power to change cycling." LeMond had long been critical of Armstrong before the Texan was stripped of his seven Tour titles by the UCI on Monday, when McQuaid insisted cycling had a future and stressed his determination to be part of it. Armstrong and his United States Postal Service team ran "the most sophisticated, professionalised and successful doping programme that sport has ever seen," a 1,000-page United States Anti-Doping Agency report concluded. A special meeting of the UCI's management committee will take place tomorrow to discuss the "exact sporting consequences" of the decision, including whether the 1999 to 2005 Tour titles and prize money will be redistributed.
