Johan Bruyneel, the former team manager of seven-time Tour de France champion Lance Armstrong, denied on Friday the allegations that he helped the American cyclist in a doping conspiracy. The US Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) on Wednesday announced that it has brought charges against Armstrong for doping, charges that if proven could see Armstrong stripped of the seven Tour de France titles with Bruyneel as manager. The charges also say Armstrong was aided by others in a doping conspiracy that ran for years, an allegation that Belgian-born Bruyneel denied in a posting on his website. “I am dismayed that once again doping allegations have been raised against me, this time by USADA,” Bruyneel said.
