Floyd Landis has struck out once again at the cycling establishment. Last may during the Amgen Tour of California Landis accused Lance Armstrong and several ex-teammate of participating in an organized doping program during his time at the Postal Service team. This time he takes aim at a different target.

Landis claims that the current team manager of Garmin-Cervelo, Jonathan Vaughters, admitted to USADA's Travis Tygart that he had doped during his professional cycling career and was not sanctioned.

Landis writes, "Had USADA done what it was obligated to do at the time of his confession, as I'm not aware of a rule allowing for immunity in the case of a confession, I'd have known of it for one thing. But more importantly JV (Jonathan Vaughters)would not have been allowed to go on to develop USPS version 2.0 behind the facade of the "clean team" mantra."

Landis goes on to accuse the UCI of covering for Vaughters as another doping scandal, and one linked to the Garmin team - considered to be the cleanest in the sport, would ruin the reputation of professional cycling.

Vaughters made this statement, "We made a promise to our riders and to the world when we started this team. We live, every day, by the standards we have set for ourselves. We cannot allow this vital team rule to be broken."

This cover up includes then Garmin rider Bradley Wiggins. In a text message exchange Landis said to have had with Vaughters, "I discussed the fact that Bradley Wiggens (sic) HGB numbers that were publicly (posted on the web to show how he was riding clean) touted as evidence of his sainthood almost certainly indicated blood doping by Wiggens (sic) in the last week of the 2009 tour. His response was not so disturbing because if his defense of Wiggens (sic) but by the indication that he in fact had discussed these very numbers with the UCI and the UCI had assured him that it was a result of using a different testing machine." HGB stands for hemoglobin.



Landis continues, "Numbers I'll remind you that are all to similar to my 2006 numbers for which USADA made allegations on the record in my hearings that they indicated doping, and all of that CAS testimony was accepted as fact in the decision. Certainly since I admit to blood doping and the numbers indicate it according to WADA scientists on the record and that very record which will always remain on record was thereafter accepted as fact by three CAS lawyers it must be considered to be so."

Landis calls on Tygart to, "suspend JV immediately from working in cycling. I don't want to take the credit for divulging another doping scandal because it's not my job. It's yours.

The disgraced Tour de France winner claims his motivation to release another round of e-mails accusing riders and management of doping is to clear his conscience and show the hypocrisy of WADA.
