    Just a reminder, from the Cas report, a quote...
    Contador : “I have never taken doping substances in my life. And not only have I not taken doping substances, but I have always been surrounded by people (cyclists, doctors, trainers, etc.) who categorically reject the use of doping substances.”

    Of course you have, Jorg Jaschke, Alexandre Vinokourov, Manalo Saiz, Johan Bruyneel, Lance Armstrong, Levi Leipheimer, Bjarne Riise, Pepe "Banned For Life" Martinez and so on and so forth

    *sigh* The fact he was an anti-doping chaperone is both unsurprising and depressing. And indeed depressing in its unsurprisingness.

    Ex-pro arrested in dope ring sting in Spain

    Ring sting! Really, who writes these headlines. They need a quality punner on board.

    That is a little twist that's a new one, as far as I know.

    Police in the Spanish city of Murcia have broken up a doping ring that had been both producing and distributing products including plasma, clenbuterol, testosterone and anabolic steroids.

    How odd that a Spanish doping ring has been distributing Clen. ...and that there are bugger all cases of Clen in cattle in Spain :)

    Not really that novel - Lothar Heinrich of Freiburg developed and published a test for the detection of autologous transfusions at the same time as running the Team Telekom / T-Mobile anti-doping programme AND their full-fat doping programme

    Dekker was a Fuentes client wasn't he.

    (sorry I might be being slow but Googling seems to come back with lots of .nl sites mentioning Dekker and Fuentes in the last hour or so)
    Disgraced Dutch cyclist Thomas Dekker has promised to spill the beans on the doping culture in the sport and name names, he announced on Wednesday...

    Nope. The whole forum in an explosion of happiness as if something totally new was coming out. I haven't seen it. The Puerto stuff was gone over in detail many times by many people and has turned out to be nothing. I assumed it was something different...couldn't explain the hysteria otherwise.

    Sell hysteria.
