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.
