Alberto Contador faces doping ban after CAS ruling

Are you thinking about starting racing? Ask about future events in here, find out what you can expect at them and who else is going so you can scrounge a lift off someone rather than riding the 30 miles to get there yourself!

I disagree.

It is a good day (long term) for the sport. Cheats must be found and punished to make the future of the sport clean and respectable.

By the same token why don’t UCI and WADA pursuing Lance Armstrong? There is too much smoke above his career that there must have been some fire at some point between 1999 and 2005.
