Enjoying it. But at minute 25 the video finds them in Tenerife (Canary Islands, Spain). If you've read The Secret Race, you'll know this is where Lance, Tyler and one other Postal Service rider (I forget who) went for the blood bag preparation (Hmmm: Two months sounds about right for recovery from blood letting).

Just sayin,

A while later, when quizzed about doping he gives a convincing counter argument - Lance did that over and over again (and I believed him), but I don't believe he's another Lance. The Canary Islands thing is an odd coincidence.

Lance gave many convincing conter arguments as well.

Just sayin :D

By the way, if you're a frequent YouTube user, I recommend subscribing to the poster of that video. He posts a new cycling documentary every week. (http://www.youtube.com/user/thecyclingr ... ture=watch)

Best line (from Wiggin's coach after a less-than-brilliant effort by Wiggo in 2011):

"he was so weak he couldn't peel the foreskin off a grain of rice."
