Frogs, God love 'em - French go ballistic when Lance delays drug test by 20minutes

SHOOT: Lance gives his side of the story.

LA: I did not try to evade or delay the testing process that day. I had just returned from an all day training session, wasn’t sure who this French man at my home was, and as soon as the UCI confirmed that he was authorized to conduct the tests, I let him take all the samples he requested.

I find it amazing that I’ve been tested 24 times without incident and the first test I do in France results in more outrageous allegations and negative leaks to the press.  This is just another example of the improper behavior by the French laboratory and the French anti-doping organizations.  I am sorry that they are disappointed that all the tests were negative, but I do not use any prohibited drugs or substances.  As always, I’m available anytime and anywhere to be tested.  It is this sort of behavior that hurts the entire system and causes me and many other athletes to call for reforms in general and an improvement in the conduct of French laboratories and authorities in particular.
