Although you probably don’t know anything about Scott Mercier, his affirmations linked with application of doping products in professional cyclist spread very quickly. This athlete belonged to the US Postal Cycling team before Lance Armstrong’s arrival. Certain statements of Scott Mercier revealed the truth that was hidden in cycling.
In fact, the US Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) made incorrect conclusions related to role of Lance Armstrong in doping. The famous American cyclist was accused and found guilty of application of banned drugs throughout his athletic career. While it may be true, the USADA claimed that Lance Armstrong induced doping in professional cycling. But these statements turned out to be wrong. Why? Which words were pronounced by Scott Mercier?
Scott Mercier said that their team doctor Pedro Celaya offered a special program for the US Postal Cycling team. He discussed about the program with each cyclist. The doctor affirmed that they had to ride 200-250 km per day. Furthermore, the doctor organized doping program that had to accompany workouts. So, he supplied US Postal Cycling team’s athletes with steroids, EPO and some other remedies.
These recommendations were offered by Pedro Celaya, when Lance Armstrong didn’t ride professionally. This athlete suffered from testicular cancer that time. There was no any doubt that Lance Armstrong 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. Thus, Lance Armstrong didn’t have any relation to the team. He didn’t induce administering doping products in professional cycling. It became obvious that doping was established by Pedro Celaya before Lance Armstrong’s arrival.
During 1990s professional riders administered Andriol. Then they administered testosterone patches. Under guidelines of Pedro Celaya cyclists used the method of overdosing in order to avoid detection by anti-doping agencies.
