Another doping rant

There’s been a lot of chatter on various sites about Riccardo Ricco’s current “situation” … but the upshot of a lot of it is that the sport will be better off (and cleaner) without him.

We’re assuming, of course, that the powers that be in the UCI and elsewhere really want to clean the sport [...]

Landis: Blow the whistle, get paid.

From the New York Times:

Floyd Landis, who was stripped of the 2006 Tour de France title for doping, has filed a federal whistle-blower lawsuit against his former team — the United States Postal Service squad that included the seven-time Tour winner Lance Armstrong — claiming that the team defrauded the government, two people briefed [...]

LeMond v. Armstrong (more punches traded)

“Up until now, he has achieved great things, if you consider he did it fairly, which I don’t believe,” LeMond said in an [...]

I’m sure that there’s a lot of truth in Floyd Landis’s confession today, and I’m just as sure that there’s a lot of truth in his accusations as well … but I also think that the [...]

Guess I'm just another sucker

You know it’s huge when doping news hits the Wall Street Journal. Will post more when I get a chance to read more articles, digest the news and compose thoughts.

But fuck … I was one of those people that thought there was a good chance that Floyd got screwed by the system, and was [...]

Bet Richie Rich didn’t consider this!

VeloNews | Drug maker cooperated with WADA

The World Anti-Doping Agency said Wednesday Italian rider Riccardo Riccò tested positive at the Tour de France after a secret molecule was planted in the blood booster EPO during its manufacture.

Riccò, 24, upset the big names of the sport to win two stages of this year’s Tour [...]
