I used to hate Greg LeMond

But after listening to this podcast, I'm starting to believe differently.Trust me, this is one hour that is well worth your time.

Take it for what it's worth, but Greg really has something to say here about the sport of cycling for the past 15 years:

Why did you "hate" Greg Lemond, that's the strangest thing I have ever heard.

I haven't had a chance to listen to the file yet.

LeMond appeared to me, based on his comments about Armstrong, to be jealous of Lance smashing his TDF records and becoming an even larger icon in American Cycling. LeMond would continually trash-talk Armstrong, claiming that a lot of his doping allegations were unture.

In other words, LeMond I had thought was just sour grapes. But in this podcast, he comes across as truely believing in what he is proclaiming about the sport of cycling because he wants to see it thrive, instead of destroyed.
