Landis sighting: signing in Seattle on Thursday

Facebook Twitter More...

Floyd Landis will be visiting the Seattle area this Thursday to sign copies of his book, “Positively False: The Real Story of How I Won the Tour de France.”

The timing could prove interesting, as a decision by a three-judge arbitration panel on the doping charges brought by the US Anti-Doping Agency could be announced at any time.

Landis is scheduled to appear at 7 p.m. Thursday at Third Place Books, Lake Forest Park Towne Plaza, 17171 Bothell Way NE, Lake Forest Park. That's the shopping center right across the street from the intersection of the Burke-Gilman Trail and Ballinger Way.

The appearance in Seattle appears to be the beginning of a West Coast swing to promote the book. Book events at Landis.com show subsequent appearances in Sacramento, Corte Madera, Thousand Oaks, Los Angeles, Pasadena and East Riverside. He's in Chicago Tuesday night before taking a day off.

The Trust But Verify blog tells about Landis' other appearances to sell his book. You can also find the latest on the pending decision from the arbitration panel.

Meanwhile, Mark sent me a link to a story in the San Diego Union (“Landis pedaling uphill against accusers“) that reports that a former cyclist, Matt DeCanio, says he took banned substances with Landis in 2003. Landis denies it.
