CYCLING

RICHMOND, Va. — Slovakian star Peter Sagan attacked with a mile left in the road world championships, then grit his teeth and powered down Broad Street to capture the gold medal in a thrilling finish. It was the first medal in the men’s road world championships for Slovakia.

AUSTIN, Texas — With a payment and an apology, Lance Armstrong settled a decadelong dispute with a promotions company that sought repayment of more than $10 million in bonuses it paid the former cyclist during a career that later was exposed to be fueled by performance-enhancing drugs. Dallas-based SCA Promotions first pursued evidence of doping against Armstrong in 2005. Although the company paid Armstrong in 2006, the testimony in its lawsuit and arbitration case helped lay the foundation for later doping charges that ultimately got Armstrong banned from the sport and stripped of his record seven Tour de France victories.
