The way the history of the TDF has gone is, occasionally, someone of unusual talent comes along and wins more than one tour. Sometimes a team is so good that they produce two riders that win consecutive tours. You never see three different tour winners all from the same country and the same team So I was amazed that Team Sky was able to win so many tours with three different riders, all from Great Britain. Unheard of.
While searching for info on the current trend toward shorter cranks, I came across an article that seemed to be implying that Team Sky wasn't playing fair, comparing them to the USPS team led by Lance Armstrong. The argument of the article was that despite passing the drug tests, there was other evidence that should be looked at more seriously, that drug tests can be beaten.
I'm sure Team Sky is really good, but are they that good? Is there more going on than we know about?
