LeMond to run for UCI presidency — Le Monde
In London for the Change Cycling Now summit, Greg LeMond told reporters this weekend that he would contest the presidency of the UCI against incumbent Pat McQuaid.
“Yes, I’m ready. I was asked and I accepted,” said LeMond. “The Change Cycling Now movement wants to change cycling. However, it is now or never to act. After another earthquake caused by the Armstrong case, another chance will not arise. If we want to restore public confidence and sponsors, we must act quickly and decisively. Otherwise, cycling will die. Riders do not understand that if we continue like this, there will soon be no money in cycling. There are fewer young people choosing cycling. If I had young children today, I would not push them to bike racing.”
