Lance Armstrong was removed from the episode following his 2012 conviction in United States Anti-Doping Association v. Lance Armstrong, and further admission of erythropoietin (EPO) usage, which was common among professional cyclists of the era. See Doping at the Tour de France for explanation of EPO doping during that era.
