Default Pill Popping in TdF

In the early stages of yesterday's tour stage, I noticed a rider breaking open a blister pack and handing out a pill to his team mate. The motorcycle camera was on them at the time and he looked sheepish, and didn't want the camera focussing on him.

Surely drug taking can't be this blatant.

I noticed this aswell, it was Ricardo Ricco from Saunier Duval and one of his team mates at the bottom of the Super Besse climb. I thought this was rather interesting,not sure what to make of it???

Looks like Ricco should have been more subtle
