Who induced taking steroids and other related drugs in cycling: Lance Armstrong or Pedro Celaya?

However you probably never heard about Scott Mercier, his statements connected with administration of doping products in professional cyclist spread very quickly. This man belonged to the US Postal Cycling team prior to Lance Armstrong’s arrival. Several statements of Scott Mercier revealed the truth which was hidden in cycling.
In fact, the US Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) made wrong conclusions linked with role of Lance Armstrong in doping. The famous American cyclist was accused and found guilty of usage of prohibited medicines throughout his athletic career. While it may be true, the USADA stated that Lance Armstrong induced doping in professional cycling. But these affirmations turned out to be false. Why? Which words were said by Scott Mercier?
Scott Mercier claimed that their team doctor Pedro Celaya had a special program for the US Postal Cycling team. Pedro Celaya discussed about the program with every rider. The doctor claimed that they had to ride 200-250 km each day. Moreover, Pedro Celaya established doping program that had to accompany trainings. Thus, he supplied US Postal Cycling team’s athletes with steroids, EPO and certain other remedies.
These recommendations were offered by Pedro Celaya, when Lance Armstrong was not involved in professional cycling. This athlete suffered from testicular cancer that time. There was no any doubt that this person would not be able to be involved in professional cycling. His cancer spread throughout the body, including brain. After Lance Armstrong experienced chemotherapy he got recovery. Thus, Lance Armstrong didn’t have any relation to the team. He didn’t promote taking performance-enhancing drugs in professional cycling. It became obvious that doping was organized by Pedro Celaya before Lance Armstrong’s arrival.
During 1990s professional cyclists used Andriol. Then they applied testosterone patches. Under indications of Pedro Celaya cyclists used the method of overdosing in order to avoid detection by anti-doping agencies.
