By Matt Slater
BBC Sport
Lance Armstrong has been warned not to take part in a Tour de France charity ride in July by International Cycling Union president Brian Cookson.
Armstrong, who received a lifetime ban for doping, is planning to ride some of the Tour route one day ahead of the race with ex-footballer Geoff Thomas.
But Cookson said this was "completely disrespectful" to the current riders, cycling authorities and the race.
"Lance would be well advised not to take part in that," he added.
"I'm sure Geoff Thomas means well, but frankly I think that's completely inappropriate."
