Britain's female cycling gold medal winner from the 2008 Olympics Nicole Cooke announced her retirement from the sport yesterday and took an almighty swipe at drug cheats. She applauded all those athletes that stayed clean and lamented how many were cheated out of success by those that succumbed to doping.
Nicole made a telling comment about Armstrong; "When Lance cries on Oprah later this week and she passes him the tissue, spare a thought for all those genuine people who walked away with no rewards - just shattered dreams. Each one of them is worth a thousand Lances"...well said!
