Lance Armstrong describes UCI Boogerd suspension as "Pure. Bullshit."  

Lance Armstrong has hit out at the UCI after it announced former rider Michael Boogerd had been banned for two years, describing the decision "Pure. Bullshit" in a succinct post on Twitter.

The former Rabobank rider admitted to doping in 2013 but a final verdict was only recently reached after a protracted case. Boogerd admitted to using EPO, cortisone and blood transfusions during the final years of his career. His results from 2005 to 2007 will be scratched from his palmares, which includes a victory at the Dutch national championships in 2006.
