      Not surprising at all.

      Doping in cycling is a long way from being in the past. At least at the moment most of the positive tests - and dodgy results - seem to be among Pro-Continental and Continental teams. For example, the Tour of Turkey.

      Of course that might be because any dopers at WorldTour teams have access to better medical advice, masking, etc.

      But let's hope not.

      Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



      May the Lord bless this post.

        apparently in the pelothon it was wildly known

          You mean about Vini Fantini?

            yes

            according to David Miller

            basically he is saying the UCI testing should be to catch those that go un reported, but it seems no one reports still..

              Thanks.

              CyclingNews has mentioned everyone was openly grumbling about it when Santambrogio won stage 14 (which I'd forgotten).

              I'm not sure I follow Millar's point. They got caught so what's the flaw he's pointing to?

                i read his second tweet and now understand..

                "The UCI doping controls are there to catch the dopers when nobody else will stop them. Its wonderful to see we can trust the system"

                  So, Our Casemore, have you seen the result today?

                    I did see the win, really pleased to see Thomas leading him out well I think he's got a really good career ahead of him ( I know he's 27). Needs to take the next step over the co IMF couple of years to show he could be a team leader in the GTs

                      Er, yes. I think I agree but you seem a little garbled there.

                            Steady.

                                Bad? Terrible more likely! 61st!!!

                                To finish behind Valverde (52nd) on a flat ITT is really bad. The only thing in favour of Contador (and Valverde and Rodriguez, who came 70th) is that the ITT in the Tour isn't flat.

                                Spanish meat exporters are probably rushing a few steaks to him right now.

                                Good ride for Froome. Martin was bound to be awesome. And four Sky riders in the top ten, including Thomas and Boasson Hagen. Clearly those two have paid attention to our demands.
