ortwin 0 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Just read it on the news. After Ulrich, Basso and other favorites were suspended before the tour even started, it now seems that Landis' amazing comeback was not a miracle at all. Cnn/Si Link to post Share on other sites

How is it possible for Europe's pharmaceutical industry to allow the Americans to gain such an advantage when it comes to doping in sport? There must be a thorough analysis of the failure and renewed efforts to ensure that our drugs are better than theirs. Link to post Share on other sites
2pints-mate 0 Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 It is no longer a viable sport. Professional cycling has lost all credibility. The Tour de France increasingly looks like an event that is impossible without drugs - institutionalised, accepted, ineradicable. Will it die of drugs? Link to post Share on other sites
indosnm 0 Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 Not saying that he didn't do it but the French don't like US winners in their race and I wouldn't put it past alittle tampering.. I hope for his sake anyway. Link to post Share on other sites
