Andrea Piccolo's EF contract terminated, HGH/Sleeping pills

Yup. We've seen what happens more recently when they catch a big fish though.

But it is not a big deal. Only the little fish are doping. The big fish just have all that natural talent and good training to tear out 7 w/kg levels day after day.
Well, you see, doping must be a bottom-down phenomenon, instead of a top-down one. That way only the lesser talents need to dope to make up for their pathetic capacities. The real talents don't need to dope, because they know it carries them and none would dare seek an unlawfull advantage. I also know the sky isn't blue, but green with purple polka-dots and that the clouds are really flying elephants.
 
It was not a routine control as ITA , Italian police & anti-doping had him under investigation.
As we saw with Superman Lopez, for the top guys it would go via doctors to assistents to team assistents to riders.
And yet Andrea Piccolo is the one to investigate, not the superstars who smash records every day. No it's the Italians going after one of their own and all is right in the cycling cosmos again.
 
apparently he was found with 4 "medicines"



will be interesting to see what else he had on him, maybe this will finally reveal what everyone has been on the last 4 seasons that's made them go so fast.
Can't be what made them go so fast considering how slow he's gone the last two years.
