  1. My understanding is that after the two year suspension the rider can't ride
    for a PT team for four years. From ProCycling:

    Saunier Duval have said that they are in advanced negotiations with Britain's
    David Millar and are expecting to sign the Scot to a contract once he
    completes a two-year ban for EPO use in June 2006. The Spanish team have
    also said that David Cañada has been successfully operated on for a heart
    problem that forced him to quit the Vuelta last week.

    A 2-year prohibition from signing for a ProTour team following the
    2-year suspention. So, effectivly a four year ban.

    But was Miller suspended prior to Cofidis signing the ProTour charter?
    It will be interesting to watch if the extra 2 year ban is applied.

  4. I believe that's if you were suspended riding for a ProTour team, at
    the time he got busted, there was no Protour, so that doesn't apply I
    don't believe.

    Only if he learns to tidy up his house and throw things away.

  6. Yes.
