Perhaps they can sponsor the jersey for the highest-finishing
non-doping rider. The only question is what colour should it be ?

They earlier had a very inside joke about Ullrich:

Jan Ullrich Feels He Can No Longer Trust Anyone With His Bags Of Blood
April 12, 2007 | | Onion Sports

BERLIN-Sources close to Tour de France-winning cyclist Jan Ullrich
said Monday that the retired champion is beginning to feel that
plastic bags of his blood may not be safe in the hands of anyone but
himself after Spanish authorities found several of Ullrich's blood
bags in the office of an infamous Spanish doping doctor. "Even long
after I retire, sacks of my blood are still turning up in the
strangest places," Ullrich, the only German to ever win the Tour,
reportedly said to business associates. "You think your blood bags are
safe with someone, and the next thing you know, aha! There it is in
some Madrid refrigerator. Do I trust myself to people too easily, do
you think?" Authorities in possession of the blood would not speculate
on its origin, but photos posted on the Velo News website seem to show
the inscription "To Lance And Sheryl, Best Wishes, Jan XOXO" on the
seal of one bag

I wonder if they have something in shariah law to deal with that.
