Secondly



Can the Lance Armstrong section be altered to this ...

Lance Armstrong claimed 7 victories in row in the Tour De France. His story seemed like a fairy tale, coming back from cancer to win.
In 2012 the American anti-doping authority published a report where 14 of Lance Armstrong’s former teammates admitted to drug taking during Lance’s winning years and alleging that he was also involved. Armstrong, although he continued to deny it, refused to participate in a hearing to establish his guilt and was subsequently stripped of all his Tour De France wins.

In January 2013 an interview of Lance Armstrong by Oprah was broadcast, where Armstrong admitted to cheating, claiming he was only doing it to level the playing field as everybody was doing it. No mention was made of the clean riders such as Christophe Bassons who were bullied out of the sport by Armstrong at that time.

Lance’s legacy now stands as one of sport’s biggest liars and frauds.

I suspect you may be changing this section every week for the next six months as other revelations come out.

If we're contemplating changes to this entry, could we add a section on Sir Wiggo? Then we could use a picture of him instead.

The image of Lance Armstrong has been removed

The section on Lance Armstrong has been changed in accordance with the author's wishes.

Reading the comments at the Entry I have also changed the information on Charly Gaul, he died in 2005

Sir Wiggo has one win ... probably not worth it as yet ... however Mark Cavendish may well be due an addition as the most successful sprinter in the race's history
