Lance Armstrong


You could say that it’s quite difficult to have a well-known and well-respected role model end up disappointing his fans and followers. Lance Armstrong is one famous athlete who enjoyed many successful years as a professional road racing cyclist. However, Armstrong was stripped of all of his seven Tour de France titles after he admitted to using performance-enhancing substances. All of his titles were won from 1999 to 2005, and you could say that it all went down the drain fast.

It’s no secret that millions of people looked up to Lance Armstrong. After all, people found his story inspiring after he was able to overcome testicular cancer. Today, Lance recently turned 50 in September of 2021. It’s been years since he was stripped of his titles, and we’re hoping that he’s secured investments outside of sports that can help him sustain the lifestyle he wants.
