However you probably never heard about Scott Mercier, his statements connected with administration of doping products in professional cyclist spread very quickly. This sportsman belonged to the US Postal Cycling team before Lance Armstrong’s arrival. Some affirmations of Scott Mercier revealed the truth which was hidden in cycling.
Actually, the US Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) made incorrect conclusions linked with role of Lance Armstrong in doping. The legendary cyclist was accused and found guilty of usage of banned preparations throughout his cycling career. While it may be true, the USADA affirmed that Lance Armstrong induced doping in professional cycling. But these statements turned out to be false. Why? Which words were said by Scott Mercier?
Scott Mercier noted that their team doctor Pedro Celaya offered a specific program for the US Postal Cycling team. Pedro Celaya discussed about the program with each cyclist. Pedro Celaya claimed that they had to ride 200-250 km each day. Furthermore, the doctor organized doping program which had to accompany trainings. So, he supplied US Postal Cycling team’s athletes with steroids, EPO and some other medications.
These guidelines were offered by Pedro Celaya, when Lance Armstrong didn’t ride professionally. This sportsman had testicular cancer that time. There was no any doubt that this person would not be able to ride professionally. His cancer spread throughout his body, including brain. After this man experienced chemotherapy he tried to get recovery. So, Lance Armstrong didn’t have any link to the team. He didn’t induce using performance-enhancing drugs in professional cycling. It became obvious that doping was established by Pedro Celaya before Lance Armstrong’s arrival.
During 1990s professional cyclists applied Andriol. Then they applied testosterone patches. Under guidelines of Pedro Celaya cyclists utilized the method of overdosing in order to avoid detection by anti-doping officers.
