From the LA times--

"Floyd Landis, who was stripped of his victory in the 2006 Tour de France after a positive doping test, has acknowledged his use of performance-enhancing drugs and accused other riders — including seven-time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong — of doping, the Wall Street Journal reported on its website Wednesday night.

Landis sent a series of e-mails to cycling officials describing the use of performance-enhancing drugs by him and other riders but was not available to comment, the paper reported. Armstrong, who is competing in the Amgen Tour of California, was also unavailable to comment."

Lance used dope????
