Report implicates Armstrong in doping

AUSTIN (KXAN) - Lance Armstrong has long said if the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) had any evidence against him they should show it. On Wednesday, the USADA did.

USADA says it's 202 page report shows beyond any doubt that Armstrong's team "ran the most sophisticated, professional and successful doping program the sport has ever seen."

Documents include records showing Armstrong paid $1 million to a convicted doping doctor. There are also e-mails, lab results and scientific data cited in their report.

Eleven of Armstrong's former teammates implicate him. One rider, George Hincapie says, "I was obligated to tell the truth about everything I knew so that is what I did."

Armstrong lawyer Tim Herman calls the report "a one-sided hatchet job."

Local cycling enthusiasts are disappointed but not surprised.

Kelly Orr, a store manager at Austinbikes, says, "Look at his competitors and everybody's getting popped for doping so you wonder the same thing in regard to Lance."

Racer Brandon Smith says, "There's plenty of people who race in Austin. I'm clean and everyone I race with is clean so it's disappointing."

Armstrong's Livestrong Foundation has been fighting cancer 15 years as of next week.

Spokesperson Kathryn McLane says it has not been harmed by the scandal. "In fact the last few weeks we've seen the number of people turning to the foundation for help with cancer increase 14 percent. And we've seen the amount of our average donation nearly double."
