Who promoted using banned preparations in pro cycling?

However you probably don’t know anything about Scott Mercier, his statements linked with usage of performance-enhancing drugs in professional cyclist spread very quickly. This sportsman belonged to the US Postal Cycling team before Lance Armstrong’s arrival. Some affirmations of Scott Mercier discovered 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 celebrated American cyclist was accused and found guilty of intake of forbidden substances throughout his cycling career. While it may be true, the USADA affirmed that Lance Armstrong promoted doping in professional cycling. But these statements turned out to be wrong. Why? Which words were said by Scott Mercier?
Scott Mercier claimed that their team doctor Pedro Celaya offered a specific program for the US Postal Cycling team. The doctor discussed about the program with each cyclist. Pedro Celaya said that they had to ride 200-250 km each day. Furthermore, the doctor organized doping program which had to accompany workouts. So, he supplied US Postal Cycling team’s athletes with steroids, EPO and some other medications.
These guidelines were offered by Pedro Celaya, when Lance Armstrong didn’t ride professionally. This athlete suffered from testicular cancer that time. There was no any doubt that this person would not be able to ride professionally. His cancer spread throughout his body, including brain. After this man experienced chemotherapy he got recovery. Thus, Lance Armstrong didn’t have any link to the team. He didn’t promote doping in professional cycling. It became obvious that doping was established by Pedro Celaya before Lance Armstrong’s arrival.
During 1990s professional riders took Andriol. Then they applied testosterone patches. Under recommendations of Pedro Celaya riders utilized the method of overdosing in order to avoid detection by anti-doping agencies.
