Fellow Bikers,
I've been recently contact by leTour officials about the 2001, 2002
and 2003 Kiln Creek Sprint series. Since Armstrong has given up
defending and has been stripped of his titles, the tour organization
went through the entire competitor list and could not find a clean
athlete to declare the official victor. They then search *all *the
cycling competitions in 2001 through 2003 and again could not a clean
rider. That is until someone mentioned to them about an obscure sprint
series held in Newport News Va. TdF Race director Christian Prudhome
contacted me a few weeks ago to verify the integrity of the our series
and the results. It took a while to dig out these old archives (Thanks
Matt!) and deliver the statistics to Christian.

I had to fabricate some clean urine samples, but that was easily done.
Although our modest sprint series didn't quite match up to the scale of
the Tour de France he felt that our commitment to clean cycling should
not go unnoticed. Christian is a little embarrassed by the whole
doping culture and so you might not hear about this in the news.
Nevertheless he assured me that our own Will Oren and formally our own
Doug Kieper will be declared the victors of the 2003, 2002 and 2001 Tour
de France. Let me be the first to congratulate them on this honor!!!
All Hail our formal Sprint Kings and the new TdF champions!!!!
Cheers!
Arne
