I guess Lefevre will be regretting his decision to force Bettini into retirement now

I love Cancellara, I'm holding out faint hope that he is simply a freak of nature. Schumacher's no surprise, but where'd we hear about Voigt?

LewisBricktop

apparently you havent heard; everybody cheats

The rumors are that three or four CSC members are being tested.

Today the first three results were supposed to be known. So far they are running two positives out of three. That is a great hit rate. Two or three positives on CSC will a huge scandal.

Fingers crossed that they decided to test the dodgiest ones first?

(God i can be naive at times)

No question, but the Schleck positive leads me to believe that perhaps Blood doping (rather than CERA) is CSC's method of choice. Meaning that CSC probably wouldn't have many positives.

I'm no expert, please correct me if I'm wrong.

Bro Deal

Maybe. But Fuentes is out of business and cost a lot when he was in business. It also looks like a few years ago CSC shut down whatever internal doping program they had, and their riders were left to use outside services. Different riders might be doing different things.

Supposedly CERA is sold in Spain over the counter, no prescription needed. If the peloton knew that it could not be tested for and you only need to inject it once every couple of weeks, it would be very tempting and a lot easier than transfusions. There were probably tons of riders using it this year.
