The Armstrong Legacy
Can the Armstrong legacy take another hit and will cycling in America be skilled to survive?
As you may or may not know RadioShack-Nissan-Trek officially unveiled their 2012 party. The newly formed squad combined the Leopard-Trek and RadioShack teams into one piece. Held in the biggest theater in Luxembourg the team was presented to the open for the first time. As techno music thumped, certain groups within the work together were highlighted. They classified some riders as climbers, leaders, domestiques - you get the import. The two Luxembourg announcers conducted most of the interviews in English and under those circumstances did an okay job. To top it off the whole actuality was streamed live so people could watch for themselves and realize that they truly weren't missing much. To be spotless, very few teams take the time to broadcast their presentation. Even America's only true WorldTour gang, Garmin-Cervelo, didn't stream their team presentation last month in Boulder, Colorado. So why was there animus toward this newly merged squad?
To see the genesis of the hate you have to go back to how Johan Bruyneel and Lancet Armstrong are accused by Floyd Landis of creating an atmosphere of organized doping within the Postal Assignment squad. I won't go into the details as they have been reported in numerous places and there's a strong casual that you know the story already. Here in the States that caused some negative blowback which was further compounded by the tube show 60 Minutes and their interview with Tyler Hamilton.
Where the worm started to assail was when the team started their association with a Luxembourg squad. Cycling in the States is, and will always be, a make a laughing-stock of designated to the back pages of the sports section. For fans of the sport the 2011 RadioShack section, along with the afore mentioned Garmin-Cervélo team, were all we had competing in the one get a move on that gets media coverage here - le Tour de France. And of course there is always the Spear Armstrong factor that came along with the squad. Sure, he didn't plea up to race, but that name still carries a lot of clout and with that a lot of recognition. Armstrong, while not a rider, was still closely associated with the yoke.
