Are the Schlecks clean?
Nice lads...but then they are managed by Mr 60 Per Cent. If they're dirty I shall hail Bradley as the winner of the Clean Tour.

It's a little like wrestling a gorilla. You don't quit when you're tired. You quit when the gorilla is tired.0 -
Yes.

What makes you so sure bradley is?0

Who cares. As long as they pass all the tests and make exciting racing?Note: the above post is an opinion and not fact. It might be a lie.0

The points I'll make are
1. Guilt by association is the realm of wacko conspiracy theories.
2. Frank - Fuentes - £7,000 - never really explained.
3. Don't judge the man by his brother - I see my brother once a year and I think he's a pr**k
4. Andy has been flagged up as a great talent since he was a teenager.
I don't really think any of this helps.Twitter: @RichN950 -

I think that is the only way you can look at any rider, where does any other viewpoint get you?0 -
This has been quite a clean tour by the looks of it. In terms of rider impact, certainly cleaner than many in the EPO era. I'm happy that Andy is rivaling Alberto - good to have 2 riders at the top of the sport. They're clearly the 2 strongest riders on the planet at present.0

Trying to predict if riders are clean is pointless. You're only going to be disappointed.0

Take a look at Fränk Schlecks career trajectory, coupled with the fact that we know he payed Fuentes EUR 7,000 for 'training advice'.
The idea of Andy as a big talent comes primarily from Fränk referring to him as a 'bigger talent than me' after he himself had had his break through. Certainly noone predicted he was going to be a factor in the GC when he rode his first GT, placing second in the 2007 Giro.
That said, let's see what the future brings.0 -

Personally, I simply can't bring myself to care much about what's going on in the top of the GC in GTs. To me, riders being busted are a source of joy, not disappointment.0 -
It's human nature though - if someone has been paying a doping lab 7k then you are going to assume they are guilty - if they have ridden for the GB track squad and make public pronouncements against doping you are going to think that they are more likely to be clean than most.
it's a hard life if you don't weaken.0 -
If they have not been caught during all of the testing that has been done in this Tour, the chances are they are clean. That applies to all of the riders not just the Schlecks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They've certainly looked spent when they've gotten off their bikes.
As has Brad, especially after the Ventoux yesterday.
