The International Cycling Union and its current and former presidents sued Floyd Landis, stripped of the 2006 Tour de France title, over comments the athlete made about the sport’s governing body.
The group, President Pat McQuaid and ex-head Hein Verbruggen took the action in Swiss courts because of “repeated, serious attacks against their characters,” the organization, known by its French acronym, UCI, said today in an e-mailed statement.
