Telephone Code – 03 www.franche-comte.org www.rhonealpestourisme.com Awesome, inspiring, tranquil, serene – superlatives rarely do justice to the spectacular landscapes of the French Alps and the Jura. Soaring peaks tower above verdant, forested valleys, alive with wild flowers. Mountain streams rush down from dour massifs, carving out deep gorges on their way. Mont Blanc, Grandes Jorasses and Barre des Écrins for mountaineers. Val d’Isère, Chamonix and Les Trois Vallées for adrenaline junkies. Vanoise, Vercors and Jura for great outdoors fans. So many mythical names, so many expectations, and not a hint of flagging: the Alps’ pulling power has never been so strong. What is so enticing about the Alps and the Jura is their almost beguiling range of qualities: under Mont Blanc’s 4810m of raw wilderness lies the most spectacular outdoor playground for activities ranging from skiing to canyoning, but also a vast historical and architectural heritage, a unique place in French cuisine (cheese, more cheese!), and some very happening cities boasting world-class art. So much for the old cliché that you can’t have it all.

(EJiiPfflNITHIS Lance Armstrong Has Something to Get Off His Chest He doesn't use performance-enhancing drugs, he insists, no matter what his critics in the European press and elsewhere say. And yet the accusations keep coming. How much scrutiny can the two-time Tour de France winner stand? by Michael Hall In May of last year, Lance Armstrong was riding in the Pyrenees, preparing for the upcoming Tour de France. He had just completed the seven-and-a-half-mile ride up Hautacam, a treacherous mountain that rises 4,978 feet above the French countryside. It was 36 degrees and raining, and his team's director, Johan Bruyneel, was waiting with a jacket and a ride back to the training camp. But Lance wasn't ready to go. "It was one of those moments in my life I'll never forget," he told me. "Just the two of us. I said, 'You know what, I don't think I got it. I don't understand it.1 Johan said, 'What do you mean? Of course you got it. Let's go.' I said, 'No, I'm gonna ride all the way down, and I'm gonna do it again.' He was speechless. And I did it again." Lance got it; he understood Hautacam—in a way that would soon become very clear.

For two reasons: First, all of the key witnesses in this case only swore under oath AFTER they knew that Armstrong was not contesting the USADA allegations (a decision announced on August 24, 2012). In other words, not a single key witness was willing to swear under oath until they were absolutely sure that there would be no adversarial proceeding, until they were absolutely sure that they would not be subject to cross examination, and until they were absolutely sure that their testimony would not be impeached by third parties or by special deals that the witnesses had made with USADA.
