If I understood today's L'Equipe, the first 4 riders had positive EPO samples.

Time to have a party watching Olano stick it to the Columbians climbing at altitude winning the World RR. You really have to feel for the Columbians who were blown away by the EPO riders from Italy and Spain.

Boardman was always regarded as being clean - which is why he always got blown off on the hills. I wonder if he wishes he was shooting up with the best of them?

dumbass,
obviously i don't have inside info, but those perceptions don't mean shid.
before the olympics if you looked up "boy scout" you'd see a picture of tyler hamilton.
Oh, and the fact that he had horrible bike handling skills while riding in the Peleton had nothing to do with why new never won?

Paging Big Mig, Greg Lemond, Stephen Swart, Bjarne Riis, Mike Anderson and Emma O'Reilly for comment
-------------------- riis standard reply: "I never tested positive for doping products" yeah but did you ever dope? "I never tested positive for doping products" at least the guy wasn't a liar.

Not really. They usually test the stage winner, the leader and three riders at random. I though they tested the second placed rider too, but that's not in the rules. I don't know if the prologue (or first stage) is an exception. Seems not, as there are only four samples, not five, in the prologue.

It would be stupid for him, or any other rider, to reply in a different manner. -------------- Alex
PRECISELY the point. Now I suppose that Lafferty will tell us that despite the fact that he just insisted that EPO can be detect long after it has broken down by today's super sensitive testing processes, he will equally insist that the reason that Hincapie could win the hardest stage of the 2005 Tour de France was because he was using EPO.
I've discussed this before - blood has a finite shelf life and can only be stored effectively for a month or so (though it's used up to three months old if memory serves). In racing season, how does an athlete store away his own blood for autologous transfusion? The answer is that unless he disappears out of the peloton for a month to six weeks he doesn't.

ph yeah totally clean, how many 6'2'' 175 pound climbers do you know?
Hincapie ?
A Discovery 6'2" climber has been reported to be one of the prologue positives. The other two riders are known dopers. I'm not sure how reliable this information is.
