Chad Gerlach Lance Armstrong's Teammate, Featured On A&E Intervention

Chad Gerlach once climbed mountains with the best cyclists in the world and rode as a teammate of Lance Armstrong. Gerlach’s athletic acclaim is long gone, but he’s about return to a national spotlight no one seeks.

The winner of nearly 100 career races will be the subject beginning Monday night, June 16 on the Arts & Entertainment Network program, Intervention.

The show will be broadcast at 9 p.m. Eastern Time and again Tuesday, June 17 at 1 a.m. Eastern Time.

The program is exactly what its name implies, a television show that serves as intervention of someone in the spiral of drug and or alcohol abuse.

Gerlach, 34, who was raised in West Sacramento but now lives in a recovery facility in Auburn, Calif., left cycling in 2002 and then lived for five years homeless and in despair in downtown Sacramento.
