Personally, I found the long awaited confession by Armstrong liberating. With that out of the way, we can put it behind us and move on to what looks to be an exciting season full of (hopefully) clean champions.

Daniel Benson is down in Australia for the Tour de San Luis, while the rest of us are looking forward to the Cyclo cross World Championships in the USA and our various team camps which precede the start of the European road season.

Are you a better human being because of this?

"Without a doubt. This has happened twice in my life."

I can’t lose my way again. I’m in no position to make promises, I am going to slip up again. That’s the challenge for the rest of my life to not lose sight of what I gotta do. I had it, and then things got too big, they got too crazy".

What’s the moral to this story?

"I don’t have a great answer there. I can look at what I did cheating to win bike races, lying about it, bullying people. we’re not supposed to do those things. There’s another moral to this story it was about losing myself, getting caught up in that and doing those things along the way. The ultimate crime is the betrayal of the people who believed in me and supported me, and I lied to them".

This will conclude our "live blog" of the Armstrong interview. We’re left with more questions than we came in with there was no mention of Bruyneel, no mention of any testimony against the UCI or other officials. There was really nothing new except for Armstrong finally admitting he’s "a jerk" and "a bully".

Now that this is behind us, please go ride your bikes this weekend, enjoy the feeling of liberation that two wheels brings, watch some bike racing and have some fun.
