However you probably don’t know anything about Scott Mercier, his statements linked with usage of doping products in professional cyclist spread very quickly. This man belonged to the US Postal Cycling team prior to Lance Armstrong’s arrival. Certain affirmations of Scott Mercier revealed the truth which was hidden in cycling.
Actually, the US Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) made wrong conclusions related to role of Lance Armstrong in doping. The celebrated American cyclist was accused and found guilty of intake of forbidden drugs throughout his athletic career. While it may be true, the USADA affirmed that Lance Armstrong promoted doping in professional cycling. But these affirmations turned out to be wrong. Why? Which words were pronounced by Scott Mercier?
Scott Mercier affirmed that their team doctor Pedro Celaya had a special program for the US Postal Cycling team. He discussed about the program with every rider. Pedro Celaya claimed that they had to ride 200-250 km each day. Moreover, the doctor established doping program which had to accompany workouts. Thus, he supplied US Postal Cycling team’s sportspersons with steroids, EPO and some other preparations.
These guidelines were offered by Pedro Celaya, when Lance Armstrong didn’t ride professionally. This man experienced testicular cancer that time. There was no any doubt that Lance Armstrong would not be capable to ride professionally. His cancer spread on other parts of his body, including brain. After Lance Armstrong experienced chemotherapy he got recovery. So, Lance Armstrong didn’t have any link to the team. He didn’t induce taking steroids and other related preparations in professional cycling. It became obvious that doping was organized by Pedro Celaya before Lance Armstrong’s arrival.
During 1990s professional cyclists applied Andriol. Then they applied testosterone patches. Under recommendations of Pedro Celaya riders used the method of overdosing in order to avoid detection by anti-doping officers.
