So odd. I prefer him at Astana, instead of with Wiggo and Froome. |

Unexpected? It was quite public back then, they made big offers to many big names such as Nibali, Cunego, Gilbert.

Yep, because the name "L. Sánchez" clearly written in the Puerto documents could've been anyone.
7 years later. Pathetic.

Though at Sky he might had won more GTs... |

You think? I don't know, imagine him at Sky.
"Hey Vincenzo, Wiggo is going for the Giro, help him there. Froome will win the tour, help him there. Got any energy left? Yeah, yeah, just go for the Vuelta, we don't care."  |

This is in 2009 when they had no leaders... |

A couple of months ago, I mentioned the PPR, power profile record for riders, which FDJeux trainer Fred GRappe frequently talks about on twitter.
Here's an article that was published in procycling about what it is, and how it works :

Some official Puerto files translated into English https://d3epuodzu3...n+Memo.pdf
If anyone has decent OCR software, can you upload a converted version please

Better later than never. I don't expect Riis to start an investigation on Contador, but surely he's among the people who still thinks that "Alberto Contador" is a cryptic reference to Antoni Colom.

Grische Niermann is the next former Rabobank rider admitting to use EPO in between 2000 and 2003.
He will tell more to the Dutch Anti doping agency.
Isn`t too unexpected as he was riding for Rabobank for ages.
If true with only 2000-2003 this could explain his best results in this area.
24th/28th Tour de France, 16th Tour de Suisse, 12th Pais Vasco, 11th Paris Nice, 22nd Giro d'Italia.
He rarely had these kind of results again after 2003.

Tirreno Adriatico route reveiled. It's a good one imo. What I like it even more is that it contains a stage for every type of cyclist. Sprinter, TT'er, Team TT, Puncheur and a Climber.

Good to see a real mountain stage in the profile!
Sprinters will not have it easy in the third stage, with that hill near the end! |

The route is actually very similar to the 2012 route. So the favourites are the same as last season.  |

Awesome route. Now everyone pray to their favourite god, fairy, spaghetti monster or pokemon that Lanciano isn't cancelled again.

Testing Armstrong samples and other stuff 7+ years later isn't pathetic but this thing is? Nice logic |

You've misinterpreted what he said. He thinks it's pathetic it's taken this long to act on the evidence.

In fact, it's the same, because if they had that 2001 Tour De Suisse positive test and only did something last year, than the logic is the same. |
