Le Tour....drugs...your joking!

Well well well Le Tour has turned out to be its usual Days of Our Lives event. The scandel, people holding back information and the liars.
The UCI is guilty of holding back that Rasmussen didnt put in his diary but failed to inform the ASO. Back to square one here with a war of words between the ASO and the UCI. Things might have been different if Rasmussen had not started the tour. Who knows, Cadel could be leading. The chicken as he likes to be called has some explaining to do (like most chicken these days full of stuff to get you going).Vino...60 stiches from a fall and you come back to ride one of the most increadible time trials. Wish I knew your secret....well now I do
The media is having a feild day with these events. It is the usual though, all cyclists are guilty when dopers go positive, yet in Australia it is rare to see on your news channels when Aussies kick some arse drug free. The thing is that if these guys played AFL they would get three stikes before it being annocunced. At least cycling has a strict policy that they adhere to...your guilty your out. Check out the Dopers Suck website for some good reading about these fools
Will this stop me watching...no...but it does dishearten me some. Le Tour survived the Festina affair and so it will survive this...I hope.
The question is will this years overall winner fell hollow at their victory?

Hey Big Fella,
You wouldn't be able to confirm a rumour that I heard about Astana people jumping out windows would you?
Apparently it was witnessed by AG2R Guys who were sitting on their balconies.

I'd be interested in hearing about it.
