Kimmage’s quest for UCI accountability

In their heated debate at an Amgen Tour of California press conference in 2009 Lance Armstrong famously questioned the worth of Paul Kimmage’s chair. Lance need not ponder any longer for Kimmage’s cathedra currently ranks at $87,000. By the end of the week that total could rise to $100,000 from donations. Such has been goodwill and support extended to the journalist in his public battle with the UCI.
