bicyclestore: Lance Armstrong steps down as head of Livestrong, Nike severs sponsorship ties amid doping allegations Lance Armstrong said Wednesday he is stepping down as chairman of his Livestrong cancer-fighting charity so the group can focus on its mission instead of its founder’s problems.The move came a week after the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency released a massive report detailing allegations of widespread doping by Armstrong and his teams when he won the Tour de France seven consecutive times from 1999 to 2005. The document’s purpose was to show why USADA has banned him from cycling for life and ordered 14 years of his career results erased – including those Tour titles. It contains sworn statements from 26 witnesses, including 11 former teammates. (Marcio Jose Sanchez/The Associated Press) Why do people keep calling it “cancer-fighting” when it´s “cancer-awareness”. And it´s been so for many years now. Everybody is goddamned *aware* of cancer unless they spent the last 50 years under a rock. We don´t need a-fucking-wareness, we need fucking research for cures.
