Landis Rejects International Court's Ruling

Floyd Landis, the Lancaster County native who won the 2006 Tour de France then had the title stripped from him, sounded a defiant tone Monday, but there may be little he can do about the international court ruling against him.

The Switzerland-based Court of Arbitration for Sport upheld Landis' suspension from professional bicycle racing on Monday. Landis had appealed to the three-member panel after an American Arbitration Association panel banned him from professional bicycle races for two years in September.

Arbiters affirmed laboratory findings that Landis used performance-enhancing testosterone in his come-from-behind win of the three-week race.

Landis has always maintained his innocence.
