I never really understood that allegation against him, honestly...don't they test after every leg of the Tour de France?

I know they test all of them...but I could swear they test them all after every leg of the race as well. I could be wrong...but I think I read that.

ok great another website with an uncharged allegation the point was he suspended or found to be doping...not accused of it

every professional athlete ever has r willb e accused of doping at one point

if anything the worst thing he ever did was encourage others to dope by being completely unbeatable...do you watch cycling at all?
hahaha i am french, i laughed out loud when i read that. asking me if i follow cycling is like asking me if i eat cheese. the tour de france goes right through this area.
and anyway, it isn't a big deal! you are being very mean and taking it personally...we are just recognizing now that they aren't testing for drugs enough and there has been huge scandal and speculation after last year's winner of the tour de france, floyd landis, WAS found guilty of drug doping and had to give up his title. before 2000 they couldn't even correctly test for blood doping and they're still perfecting the system.
and does it really affect you that much what i say? you just seem to think i am making a personal attack. i apologize for offending you.

they test everyone but there are ways to get around the tests...i'm not sure of the logistics. last year, the day before the tour de france began, 9 cyclists were unable to compete because they had steroids in their blood. then afterwards, the winner, floyd landis, tested positive and had to give up his title. it was a huge scandal. lance armstrong has never been proved a user, but there is a lot of speculation. especially here in europe, but we are probably just jealous :smt110

I'm preparing to get flamed here (good thing cause I'm coooold), but I really can't stand those bracelets. I mean, I'm all for giving to good causes and charity, and most especially cancer, but yeah, no bright yellow rubber bracelets for me. :D

Just kidding!

Yeah, I know they're not the most attractive things in the world, but I still love them.
Don't worry. No flaming from me. I know some people who support the cause but don't really feel like having a bracelet that clashes with everything. lol

LOL! I just don't think that you necessarily need to advertise what you support. Hey, if you wanna, cool, don't matter to me, but you aint gonna catch me in one of those uuuuugly things. :D

Tho...it doesn't clash if you're dressing up like Big Bird. ;)
