I really think those two things out weigh his bad aspects and put him above like/dislike arguments, not everyone is/has to be nice, and whether or not he is he's trying pretty damn hard to do stuff, and that stuff is pretty flippin respectable.
(I actually respect anyone who cycles in the tour its mind blowing to go up and down those mountains in three weeks)
I also think the Shell comparison is very harsh, he's only a biker and hes doing he best to help others, which is more than most people do, without any real ulterior motives (yes ego, but i agree with Hippy ego isnt a bad thing)
i really think give the guy a break, hes just a cyclist living a life and doing stuff, there are worse people doing much much worse things - use energy to shout at them not Lance.
The most interesting thing to come up here is what Ro-land says about him using influence to stop cycling cleaning up, how so, could you elaborate, this the most damning argument ive heard against him.
finally this man is my hero;
