Lance Armstrong affair saddens Sir Chris Hoy

Six-time Olympic gold medal winner Sir Chris Hoy told BBC Radio 5 live's Richard Bacon he is saddened by the recent revelations surrounding Lance Armstrong and doping.

The United States Anti-Doping Agency has published its findings in a report, after banning Armstrong for life and stripping him of his seven Tour de France titles.

Hoy, however, is glad that the information is now public and is assured that cycling has cleaned up its act in recent years.

5 live Sport will have a special programme "Peddlers: Cycling's Dirty Truth" at 19:00 BST on Monday looking at the whole Lance Armstrong saga, including a full interview with Tyler Hamilton.
