Cycling doping coaches that moved to running?

There is lots of names but any coaches that have been officially busted in cycling and then moved to Kenya to 'manage' athletes?

A dutchman with initials JH and an Italian with initials GR.

Stefan Matschiner got busted and spilled the beans about doping Kenyan runners...

I thought I saw Ferrari at the local track the other night.. ;)

Blood samples from the European Championships in Gothenburg indicate cheating with EPO and blood transfusions, but it must be confirmed by positive EPO findings in additional urine samples before the suspects can be convicted of doping.

The Swedish anti-doping authorities suspect at least 23 of the participants in the European Athletics Championships in Gothenburg to have been doped.

Analyses of hemoglobin content in blood samples from the 23 European championship participants have provided anti-doping authorities with clear scientific indications that they had doped during the competition in Gothenburg.

"We took blood samples from a total of 151, European Championships participants. 23 of them exceeded the international athletics federation's threshold, suggesting that they had taken EPO or blood doping, "said the Swedish anti-doping chief Bengt Eriksson.

Something tells me this kind of info usually isn't made public, since they obviously don't get a start prohibition for messed up blood values.
 
I remember in 2003 training with ONCE in Adelaide and Caruso dropped back off the back and when I looked around he was putting something into his leg. I couldnt see clearly what he was doing but he was coasting with one leg up and looking at it. He tested positive for Nandralone a few days later and the local media didnt mention it at all. It has never been mentioned. Saiz was a very friendly guy to me and they even gave me team kit. Its such a cut throat world that if you don't dope, someone else is going to and get the contract.

Its unfair that cycling gets the doping focus when ALL pro sports are involved as much.
