Well, so much for the “good conduct” oath the riders had to sign before this year’s tour.

Gee whiz, you’d think these guys would have more sense than to test the powers that be especially since all riders had to sign a pledge they would not cheat and would forfeit their annual salaries if caught.

I did have suspicions yesterday after seeing Vinokourov rebound to win yesterday’s stage after he cracked so badly in stage 14. It looked just like what Landis did in last years TDF.

The Versus channel was running yesterday’s stage on the tube today but I just noticed they switched to showing the earlier time trials. Damage control?

Just a note that I screwed up the date. This news is from today - not 7/22. Apologies for the error.

I saw this coming after watching his wild performance swings. A shame, he had a brass set to ride after getting torn up like he did................
