I watched the videos yesterday and agree with both of you- I'd like to hear LeMond's side of the story in the exact same format (Him in front of the podium with counterpoints to every date, meeting, and quote JB provided). Maybe he is the whiney, no-business-sense person that JB makes him out to be. Or perhaps, when you are a 7x TdF winner who, as admitted by Burke, blew up Trek's business by bringing road bikes into American homes and you are Trek's #1 sunshine pumper, you have alot more influence than you think...and GL became the victim. Very reminiscent of the Phil Knight situation at Oregon.

Wouldn't you like to be a fly on the wall when JB and Greg had there meeting in August?
I'd like to know Greg's side. It's just as interesting as Trek's if not more.
Sounds like Greg wasn't a fan of "all of your eggs in one basket" with JB. In reguard to his mass merchant efforts.
His "quotes" from the papers, scary.
There is always three sides to every story..... yours, mine and the whole truth.
