Help me out here. If they had a case, why would they settle? Is it
that difficult to get a decision from a jury? I thought Strock was
doing this on principle. Is this as good as an admission of guilt by
USA cycling and Wenzel?

I heard $125,000 each. Lawyers and taxes take is around $85,000.

Duped (but a good listener)
