Sigh. Most new teams or teams with new management are extremely dodgy right now. Even GreenEdge went and got the doctors from the AIS that, as is well documented, spent the past two decades doping youth athletes
Again, I haven't looked that hard but how well documented is it actually? And how the hell do you find all this stuff out? |

Do you have any links on that?

They were fired and it was revealed this was the reason. (EDIT: Fired from the AIS) Then the shitstorm started, including several former AIS "alumni" admitting it was pretty widespread.
I wasn't paying much attention to cycling at the start of the season, so I'm not informed enough on that subject to talk at length about it, but I remember the topics on the cyclingnews forum were pretty extensive so I'd recommend shuffling through that. In fact that's probably what I'll end up doing one of these days.
Search that forum for the name "Jobie Dajka" and go from there.

He's promised he'll attack solo 40 km from the finish so look out
Also, he says he's going to try to win the Tour of Beijing.
A glimmer of excitement for that horrendously boring race nobody except the UCI cares about?

Cheers for that. Equine Growth Hormone sounds sketchy - is it just for people who can't afford HGH? |

Or hes never doped in his life, and he's a always been this good on sheer talent
Seriously though, if he did dope before, I'd like to believe he's come back clean.

Extremely doubtful. What he achieved during this year's TDF was beyond "normal". And though I don't have figures, the same probably goes for these first stages.
He, like Contador, probably never felt any guilt because cycling goes with doping in their minds. They can't conceive it another way... |

We all saw how he won that stage, only better riders were Froome and Wiggins that day...and that says a lot.

I was about to say something about that. In 2009 Alberto said: "I never admired Lance Armstrong.". Now, Youth Idol -> Armstrong. WTF?? |

A bit of a gamble, but I think Froome will disappoint somewhat. |
