OMG Mega doping scandal on Tour de France
 
Hey two wheel lovers. :lol:

Looks like the two favourites for this years Tour de France are out!

Basso and Ulrich have been refused entry because they have been using illegal performance drugs.

The scandal looks to be quite big. At present there is no hard detail on who is in and who is banned.

Jeez you couldn't make it up :oops:

Have you not been watching what has been happening here in Spain? There has been a major scandal going on for the past couple of months with leading teams involved.

Some cynics say that it is impossible to be a top cyclist these days without being "dirty".

Notice the French still trying to get Armstrong despite him winning that case against Le Monde and L'Equipe a week or so ago? :?

Basso following his performance last year was my favourite for the Tour this year. Looks like he goes to work on more than an egg hey? :?

Yeah I had been watching the Spanish stuff rumble on but the unspeakable has really hit the fan now!

Amazing how some French people cannot let Armstrong go? How many times does the guy have to win to make the point?

Ulrich again ? how stupid is that kid.

He already got caught once.

Was Ulrich involved in the Festina scandal a few years back?

Peter Henry 30-06-06 11:45 AM

The truth is the French only want a French rider to ever win their tour. It is as simple as that. :?

huge 30-06-06 11:47 AM

Hey Peter how long are they going to wait? lol

Thankfully not all French people such d***heads
