Lance Armstrong's former assistant Mike Anderson has penned a scathing article about the disgraced cyclist for Outside magazine.

Anderson, who worked as Armstrong's personal assistant and mechanic from 2002 to 2004, calls Armstrong a vengeful, spiteful man who tried to destroy anyone who disagreed with him about anything.

Anderson also claims he saw Androstenedione, a banned steroid in Armstrong's medicine cabinet, and heard him say he "hated going to these f**king things" in reference to his Livestrong Foundation events.

As Breaking Celebrity News reported, on August 24, the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency stripped Armstrong of his seven Tour de France titles shortly after he announced he was going to give up his legal challenges against the organization.

But Anderson's article is less about Armstrong's use of performance-enchaning drugs than about how he dealt with the people around him.

He constantly feuded with team members, Anderson claims, and sought to discredit any who left his team to head out on their own.

Anderson described being told to “de-Kiking” Armstrong''s apartment in Spain prior to a race there because Lance would be bringing girlfriend Sheryl Crowe with him. Kik was Armstrong's wife Kristin’s nickname. Anderson said he was told to get rid of everything of hers, with no instructions about where things should go. There was clothing, personal items, mementos, and family photos, and it was all dumped like ordinary trash.
