    Default First Tour DQ?

    "Team Barloworld will start the 11th stage, this morning in Lannemezan, wtihout Moises Duenas Nevado, who has been withdrawn from the team after being tested positive (EPO) at the end of the time trial fourth stage.
    The rider was informed by Agence Francaise Lutte contre le Dopage (AFLD) this morning."


    Well, that doesn't bode well for a "clean" tour.

    I thought they snagged somebody else a few days ago--making this guy nummer 2.

    Less, not none--generally always a rule bender when stakes go over a few dollars...any contest, any where.

    I think it was, as the Germans say, Klosterfokken. Tim O'Donnell

    You forgot Beltran, and we still need to see what the rationale for Moreau's withdraw was .... Festina 2.0?

    Yeah, curious that members of the team have been dropping like flies.

    I did, and I was wondering about Moreau.
