UCI committee member not impressed with Armstrong confession
Commenting on the Armstrong interview, Danish member of the UCI Management Committee Peder Pedersen said he was negatively surprised because he is sensing that Armstrong is either concealing something or lying.
"We are still lacking the needed information pertaining to how it was possible to use doping on the team without getting caught. What about the network? Who has aided Armstrong? We still know nothing about this," Pedersen said.
According to Pedersen he was expecting Armstrong to explain in the interview who helped him dope or how he managed to test non-positive in so many doping tests while being doped.
"If he is truly doing this to help create a better future for cycling then he needs to come clean about these things. That's what we need to be able to move forward," Pedersen explained.
"Imagine if there are people who were part of the network which helped Armstrong dope who are still involved in professional cycling today. Then we have gotten nowhere - if all has been covered up and concealed," Pedersen concluded.

Unless the second part of the interview is completely different, there will be no big revelations on how this all worked.
