Megatalent is Son of Doping Offender from Lance Armstrong's Team: 'He Made Mistakes, That Is Clear'
Nineteen-year-old world champion Ashlin Barry discusses lessons learned from his father Michael Barry, who admitted to doping while on Lance Armstrong’s team. Barry, riding for Visma-Lease a Bike, won the U23 world title in Montreal, the same city where his father ended his career after testifying against Armstrong. Although unaware of the events as a child, Barry views his father’s past as an advantage, allowing him to avoid similar mistakes in today’s different sporting environment. His primary inspirations are Wout van Aert and Mathieu van der Poel, whom he watched as a child, rather than his parents, both former professional cyclists.
