Was he doped or not? Well... he was. One of the most dramatic events in the history of Tour de France, was when Michael Rasmussen was pulled out of the race by his own team (Rabobank) in 2007 after he had just won the queen stage, was in yellow and the path to the overall victory was clear! Hear Michael tell about why it then took six years to come clean. Not just clean, but breaking any code of silence (omerta) that might exist in the professional peloton. Today he is a full time teacher at a Danish boarding school, where he - among other subjects - is coaching 15-16 year olds in mountain biking. He tells us the story about his career, the exit and the work he is doing today to make a difference for young people.
