Evidence amassed in this investigation demonstrated that the “code of silence” regarding drug use has been shattered.

USADA said it was sending the report, which was more than 1,000 pages long and contained the sworn testimony of 26 people, including 15 riders, to the International Cycling Union, the World AntiDoping Agency and the World Triathlon Corporation, before
making it available on its website. “The evidence shows beyond any doubt that the US Postal Service Pro Cycling Team ran the most sophisticated, professionalized and successful doping program that sport has ever seen,” USADA said in a statement from chief executive Travis Tygart. The case against Armstrong and his team included eyewitness, documentary, first-hand, scientific, direct and circumstantial evidence. REUTERS
