If you're just catching up with the Floyd Landis story, here's a few more resources:

June 27, LA Times.

Daniel Coyle's profile of him in the July issue of Outside.

Coyle's profile in the NY Times about Floyd's upcoming hip replacement.

And Coyle also spent a chapter on Landis in last year's book "Lance Armstrong's War."
