Doesn't all the Sky-talk provoke such situations? Hunger for doping scandals and creating a demand on the news market I mean? |

Some say the police were at the Astana's hotel to hand out parking tickets 
Oh well, Di Gregorio caught. Just a small fish in a huge sea, unfortunately. |

Anyway, tomorrow's stage.
With the current GC, nobody has much to lose so we're likely to see attacks instead of boring stilted racing.
In other words, normal fare when there are long time trials to make people lose time 
Should be interesting

I hope so. If this route doesn't make people attack like crazy I'll be seriously depressed. Specially with Sky's TT domination.

Wiggo and Froome look so unbeatable in this tour, I really hope Contador is here. |

Let's hope that'll lead to something more consistent than just Di Grégorio.
I've been disappointed by Cofidis since they signed him. Hiring Sanquer lately, and hearing him saying in a press conference RDG is just an idiot who suddenly went into doping just makes me sick. |

I actually like Di Gregorio (apart from his uni-brow).

Joan Horrach's response to Di Gregorio's arrest on Twitter was brilliant. Complained about persecution and other issues. One unhappy customer? |

Jrack @JoanHorrach
Q se vayan ya a la mierda con tanta persecucion, controles y gilipolleces con el ciclismo! A LA MIERDA! Dejadnos trabajar y hacer ciclismo!
They can go to hell with all the persecution, controls and bullshit in cycling! TO HELL! Just let us work and ride!
Oscar Pereiro @oscarpereiro
La UCI y la WADA son una banda de chupa tintas q viven a cuenta de los deportistas. Q cuantos mas años llevan al cargo peor trabajan!!!!
UCI and WADA are a bunch of pen-pushers who live at the sportmen expense. The more time they are in their job, the worse they work.
Pathetic. And someone should tell Pereiro the difference between WADA and police, btw. He's just that retarded.

Well, Contador this morning complained on twitter that he was dope tested last night and again this morning.

They are stupid. They just can't conceal it. 
Specially Pereiro should STFU. What a joke of a Tour winner.

Just watched the video, but the weird thing was the advert before it started was for Wiggle cycles, how ironic |

A Tour winner who rode for some pretty suspect teams as well in Phonak, Caisse and Astana. |

More like a Tour winner who openly talked with Landis about his doping program.
