    It was very interesting reading about FLoyd. From what I could tell, he was not prepared emotionally for the stresses of the circuit. And then when it all came tumbling down, he was just not able to cope with the even worse stresses of the battle. He was incredibly naive. Plus it seems like he had this competition thing going with Lance. I mean, talk about setting yourself up to fail... Ever since he was a little boy he was breaking the rules. So it was relatively easy to break more rules and figure there was a greater morality somewhere that made it ok. The doping scene is a very sad commentary on modern life.. Another thing we can't fix (repair)

    I'm still not done reading it. But it's really interesting - tons better than any of the books I've read about any of them.
