The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) disputes a claim by former international cycling union (UCI) president and current honorary president Hein Verbruggen that discussing suspicious doping samples with athletes was the normal practice in sports.

The World Anti-Doping Agency announced Tuesday that it will not participate in an investigation into links that cycling's governing body allegedly had to Lance Armstrong due to "serious concerns" about the inquiry.

He's going to have to crawl through a lot of crap before he sees daylight.

The New York Times reports that Lance Armstrong, who has strongly denied the doping charges that led to him being stripped of his seven Tour de France titles, has told associates he is considering admitting to the use of performance-enhancing drugs.

Cyclists and other athletes to be banned for up to four years starting from 2015, advocates WADA President John Fahey and calls for additional funding to be provided to WADA to prevent cutbacks in anti-doping activities.

The head of the World Anti-Doping Agency believes the Lance Armstrong case is just part of a wide-ranging doping battle that will never be won.

The International Cycling Union (UCI) has asked Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) board president John Coates to help choose a team to investigate the governing body's links to the Lance Armstrong doping case.

It was just a couple of inconsequential incidents that brought down a sport legacy.

Cycling's governing body, UCI, agreed Monday to strip Lance Armstrong of his seven Tour de France titles and ban him for life, following a report from the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency that found him guilty of leading a massive doping program on his teams.

Lance Armstrong's former manager Johan Bruyneel was forced to leave the RadioShack-Nissan team earlier today after being singled out as a central figure in the former Tour de France champion's doping program.
