Floyd Landis celebrates with owner Andy Rihs and other members of the Phonak cycling team on the day Landis won the Tour de France. ( Javier Soriano/Agence France-Press)Andy Rihs, owner of Phonak Cycling, which will be disbanded at the end of the year:
"As a passionate cyclist, I am bitterly disappointed that the sport of cycling apparently has become a synonym for doping. For this reason, today [Tuesday] I see myself forced to do something I have never done in my whole life as a businessman: I have given up.
"I'm deeply disappointed because what he [Floyd Landis] did was what led to this decision. I would never say this is a bad person because he played bad. I regret what he's done for him, too."
