Here is the rating results for the Tour de France cyclist Lance Armstrong, up until October 2012 when he was sensationally officially named as a cheat by the USADA. This will obviously have an impact on his rating as a hero, so the results up to that point have been archived, so they can be compared to new ratings collected since that time. See also a hero profile of Lance Armstrong which includes my own ratings.
