That is pretty huge news. The noose is tightening.

'Regarding the Dutch media report: No 6mos suspensions have been given to any member of Slipstream Sports. Today or at any future date.'
Seems this really got more interesting now.
RIP

Interesting for sure and if it is true Lance may be screwed. Why are Hincapie doing it. He will retire anyway. Levi is old too, will retire very soon too. They are kinda ruining their own name by admitting.
Words to live by
"What would Lance do?"

It would have come out one way or another. At least this way they now can guarantee that their legacy will be to help clean up the sport to some extent or at least reveal their previous problems.

I'm more interested in whether Levi grows some balls and sings the whole story, from 2000 to 2011 when he left the team. No matter who falls, and not just about Armstrong. But I know it won't happen, because they aren't doing this for the sport, but to save their own asses.

France's Olympic team includes Mickael Bourgain, the track sprinter.
He will ride the ROAD RACE. Wtf. https://www.lequipe.fr/Cyclisme-sur-ro...ain/296386

If I understand correctly, every keirin rider must also compete at a different discipline. Wtf indeed.

That seems to be the case. Apparantely, Robert Forstemann is riding the MTB aswell, so that he can ride on the Track.
IOC/UCI determined to screw over Cycling at the Olympics
