By


Anna Hansen and Lance Armstrong
Lance Armstrong, the ace cyclist who won the Tour de France every year from 1999 to 2005 and whose titles were stripped off after a massive report by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency detailed the use of performance enhancing drugs; is whom we want to tell you about.

He actually drank and drove and hit two parked cars when he lost control of his GMC Yukon.


His long time girlfriend then decided to take the blame in order keep the disgraced cyclist off the front pages.

"We've had our family name smeared over every paper in the world in the last couple of years and honestly, I've got teenagers, I just wanted to protect my family," Hansen told police, the reports state. "I thought, gosh, Anna Hansen hit some cars, it's not going to show up in the papers, but Lance Armstrong hit some cars, it's going to be a national story."

In hot water: Anna Hansen Armstrong and Lance Armstrong, pictured in 2012.

But before the decision to lie was made, Hansen ran up to the man whose cars for rents were hit to report the accident and pledge repairs. She told the man the truth.

"She said, `I'm Anna, we're the Armstrongs, my husband's Lance, he was just driving maybe too fast around the corner or something," the man, Thomas Van Allen told the police.

Lance Armstrong is due to appear I court March 17.
