What is the ultimate test of physical and mental endurance? Some would say a marathon. Others would say 20 marathons in 20 days. Some others would even say completing the Tour de France without any performance enhancing drugs. How about a month without alcohol?
Let's face it, what incentive is there really for someone who has got away with doping throughout their sporting career to come forward to such a commission? Even with the threat of sporting sanction removed, they still stand to lose their reputation and place in the hearts of their public.
Regardless of what you have heard since Lance Armstrong staged his confession on Oprah, drugs are everywhere in sport. And regardless of where you stand, they're not going anywhere. And there's a good reason they're not going anywhere either: drugs work and they work very well.
The re-writing of history is not solely constrained to the entry on Armstrong either. Check out the Tour-de-France entry, his name has been removed from the winners list, added and removed again more than 30 times in the last three days alone.
Geraint Thomas, Team Sky Cyclist and Olympic gold medalist, has clocked up an important stage win at the Tour Down Under. Thomas, 26, secured victo...
Armstrong's statement implies that he crossed the line between wanting to be better at his sport in order to win, and winning at any cost. That the winning became more important than the sport itself.
Sir Bradley Wiggins has said Chris Froome will lead Team Sky at the 2013 Tour de France, as the recent knighthood effectively concedes his title and f...

We are ALL flawed and this is what we should remember when we jump on to our high horses and pass judgment on others.
Lance Armstrong "inflicted misery on good people" and "should be in jail," says one of his most fierce critics following the Oprah interview. Forme...
Machiavellianism is measured by personality tests and so called 'high Machs' - those who score high on Machiavellianism - are strategic long-term planners. Lance Armstrong has become famous for his apparently altruistic work with cancer charities - this echoes Jimmy Savile's extensive similar charitable pursuits.
If Armstrong names names, at the UCI or elsewhere, then those who at best turned a blind eye - and at worst colluded - during the sport's darkest days will find themselves held to account. If the World Anti Doping Agency allows for a 'truth and reconciliation' process to emerge from the fallout, then those who always avoid the bullet may finally be caught in the sights:
The route for the 2014 Tour de France, which will take in the Yorkshire countryside and London, will channel the spirit of the London 2012 Olympics by...
Lance Armstrong's long-anticipated appearance on Oprah could bring an end to speculation about his use of performance-enhancing drugs.
We know that he's going to confess to doping - but what else will Lance Amstrong reveal in his interview with Oprah Winfrey? Tick the boxes/have a non...
Lance Armstrong scooped Oprah Winfrey by apologising to staff at the Livestrong cancer charity to admit he doped during his seven Tour de France 'wins...
Lance Armstrong's credibility is morally bankrupt but next week's tête-à-tête is a seminal one for Oprah Winfrey. For all her influence and power, should she handle Armstrong with kid gloves she can expect a universal backlash.
I like Lance Armstrong, have always liked him. Not the fairy-tale prince, but the real him, the guy with the scars in his head, both visible and invis...

There is no sign that British cycling's success story will end on 31 December 2012, nor much denting of cycling's growing popularity as a participation sport exercise. These books will not only liven up your seasonal reading but act as a testament to what it has taken for British cycling to become such an incredible success story
While Bradley Wiggins sits at home convalescing after his recent road accident, and no doubt putting in the hours on the turbo trainer despite his broken rib and dislocated finger, the management at Team Sky are already turning their attention away from their recent staff clear-out and towards the 2013 season.
