Thanks. Does anyone remember the name of that site which tracked all doping positives? I remember they did a very good job of staying on top of reasons, and would probably differentiate.
Also couldn`t remember but have asked around. Do you eventually mean https://www.dopeol... |

That wasn't it, but it's a better site then the one I was thinking of.
That's interesting, CERA's last appearences are Kopp and Schumacher dating back to 2013. The quick blurb they have on how CERA differs from EPO doesn't point to any reason it would be easier to catch. I wonder if you can't microdose it or if it's more dangerous or something. |

There was also TourDeDoping, but I believe it's no longer being updated.

Exactly what I was thinking of. You can see how long it's been since I've been keeping up with this stuff. |

Tainted supplement if I remember correctly. He was eventually cleared. |

Just saw they revealed the Tour de Suisse-route. It seems like a rather easy route without too many hard finals, apart from the one finishing on Rettenbachferner, 2675 above sea level and 10,7% over 12 kilometres. Holy fuck I look forward to that one |

Indeed, probably needs a proper multi-mountain stage or another summit finish to make it a good route, especially with the long ITT at the end, though I guess the organisers thought that the Rettenbachferner will create some serious gaps. Can't wait to see Quintana powering up there destroying the rest of the field

If Quintana is a lock for Tour de Suisse, most definetely, that climb is tailor made for him. I think its up in the air though (from what I think I have heard  ) |

Not a good day for crashes with Tirreno. But the prize for dumbass spectator of the month goes to this c*ck in the Netherlands who took out Lauren Rowney in todays Drentse 8 race. https://www.rtvdrenthe.nl/nieuws/video...westerveld
Gotta say i'm disgusted by what to me seems like a deliberate action to crash a cyclist

That sure seem deliberate, I can only agree with you. Potentially, he is risking the rider's career by doing that. Hope he gets a massive fine and never is allowed to go to races again |

Remember the spectator in the World Champions jersey on Mount Zoncolan last Giro, he made the Italian rider behind Rogers almost stop and he got dropped because of it, yet the spectator was still there running alongside later...

Not sure why you quote CIRC report, but Tommeke is out for 6 weeks. With classics out his season is essentially over anyway unless he decides to ride Tour and win the cobbled stage. |

Apprently Boonen is very focused on winning the Worlds in September, it's a course he could do very well on.

Quite a pity that Simon Geschke is possibly out for the Ardennes. Last year`s 6th in the Amstel Gold Race was really strong and I had hoped to see him there again.
After his crash on the 5th Tirreno stage, where he hit the back of the team car unbreaked (25km/h only luckily), he underwent surgery.
Even when he is fit again for the Ardennes, he maximum will start at helper then. But I think it`s more likely to not see him until 01/05 for Frankfurt Eschborn. |
