Like we always are... I just need a little assistance from everyone's knowledge of past Tours De France and it riders. I've compiled a list of the top ten GC riders of the TDF from 1996-2006. There may be some errors, please excuse them, and correct me if I'm wrong. But I want to turn it into 2 lists: one of riders who have been caught or admitted to doping and one otherwise. Here's the 55 names:
