Money Laundering & Doping In Italy. Armstrong, Menchov named

[Oldman]

all in the family

Drug dealing is usually a franchise operation handed down through the generations.

This is very interesting. When Ferrari’s daughter is struggling in a triathlon, he gives her an illegal push. When the Italian Feds are circling, he throws his son under the bus.



LOL

and he's so honest that he warned about "team dominance" and proposed that a long and "almost individual" mountain stage should be included at the end of the Tour - only for the favorites so that they can "finally!" compete against each other without team trains... YEAH, he did it in 2008 once his mighty Uniballer retired... still on his web

What the hell is he thinking about the readers, that everyone is completely stupid and will eat all the sh*t he throws out of his camper?

“I first met Ferrari in 1999 and he had a camper van then,” she told VeloNation today. “It was strange to me that we were meeting the doctor on the side of the road, outside of a big city, in the parking lot of a big hotel where he had the van. Who meets their doctor that way? It was all very peculiar.”

Writing on his site about his use of those vehicles, Ferrari said there was an innocent explanation. “My professional activity takes place mainly on the road, with the execution of tests evaluating the fitness of athletes on climbs or flat courses,” he wrote. “Hence the need to utilize a camper van as a commodity, in order to allow the athlete to take a shower and discuss comfortably about the results of the test. Surely not to ‘evade the controls’”


I was thinking how this would seem if it happened in the UK. Can you imagine a Doctor meeting up with British riders training in the Peak District - in a Camper Van (RV) ??? and no-one would question it !!

I think they do it in Majorca/Girona instead..

In Italy campervans converted into blood donation clinics travel around some of the smaller remote villages to get blood donations, so it would not be out of place there

Would anyone question if a British rider started getting "Training Plans" from a Hematologist who is banned for life from coaching?

Nah, Brits don't dope. Their performances are all down to marginal gains and scientific training...

BTW - wasn't Ivan Gotti's dad arrested with a camper van full of drugs? And wasn't Rumsas also busted with a camper van full of drugs too?

Just because some riders had camper vans with drugs doesn't mean a random sports doc would have any meds in his!

Oh wait, where else would he have them...

And in the Peak District this rider would then take a shower! lol

Whenever you see a camper van with a non-Dutch licence plate, alarmbells should start ringing.

Interesting part for me in all this is Comeback 2.0 and Catlin. The fraud that is. Announcing the drug-tested return side by side with Catlin and young Phinney was premeditated fraud and deception. Poor little Phinney can be excused but Catlin was obviously in on the play knowing full well Armstrong was dealing direct with Ferrari on a drugs program. I'm also surprised that Armstrong was still in contact even after the Floyd revelations came out in May of 2010. Obviously Armstrong couldn't live without Ferrari. More than likely he had zero faith in his own natural abilities without chemical aids.

 

[Cloxxki]

I think Ferrari would be disgracing his national mob culture to let an old wealthy customer off the hook because he said bye. What do you think? Would you let go of a customer like that just because he stopped competing?

Shane Stokes talks to some fat chick about Ferrari
Quote:
“How stupid does he think people are, to say that he wasn’t working with Ferrari, that he was working with his son? How dumb does he think people are?” she said. “Everybody else with common sense knows that it is a front for a reason. The company is set up by Ferrari, and that is where the money will go.

Quote:
“They are just trying to find any lie they can use, because stupid people will believe stupid lies.”

http://www.velonation.com/News/ID/9...-that-Armstrong-work-had-no-doping-links.aspx

Agree big time with the "stupid people wil believe stupid lies" comment.
Especially when it come to the relationship with RV Ferrari.
OMG.

It makes sense for Lance to continue to work with the Ferrari's.
"Number One" and whatever nickname Lance has for the son.
The more Anti-Lance stupid comments, the better
Works in Lance's favor. Work's in Ferrari's favor too.

it always boggled my mind that people took armstrong at his word that he had broken off all professional contact with his hematologist.

it was also very clear to me that comeback 2.0 only happened after consultation with ferrari and the confirmation that he could get around the new blood passport etc...

there is simply no way armstrong would risk coming back without having the advantage that was the only reason he won in the first place.

 

[JMBeaushrimp]

If you can throw in a box of rubber bracelets that smell like diesel fuel and mould, I'll order a gross!

The scourge of motorhomes must end! How many drunk Dutch tourists do we need prowling around Europe, anyway?

I'm dedicating my lazer-like focus to ending this travesty once and for all! Or, at least raising awareness of it...

Now leave me alone. I've got to get back to spending six hours a day lying on my bed in my RV. What are you on...

Looks like this case can be closed. Just good friends - "those guys"

Hmmmmm funny he never mentioned the son before....

Lance Armstrong denies he's receiving training help from a banned Italian doctor or his son, but maintains "those guys are my friends and that's not going to change."

Lance Armstrong's last team, Radio Shack (2009), from evidence gathered from a raid on team mate Popovich's house in November 2010, had links with Dr. Michele Ferrari.

Born leader and control freak Lance obviously distanced himself from that team arrangement

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1180944/1/index.htm

Around 8 p.m. on Nov. 11, 2010, Italian police and customs officials acting at the behest of agents of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) pulled over Yaroslav Popovych as he drove on a roundabout in Quarrata, a quaint Tuscan village of stucco facades and colorful shutters between Pistoia and Florence. The officials had been looking for Popovych, one of Lance Armstrong's Radio Shack teammates, to execute a search warrant. Italian authorities say the Ukrainian cyclist was startled but cooperative. He led them through olive groves to his house beside a cemetery. There the officials found drug-testing documents, medical supplies and performance-enhancing drugs. They also found e-mails and texts that, they say, establish that as recently as 2009 Armstrong's team had links to controversial Italian physician Michele Ferrari, with whom the Texan had said he cut ties in 2004.
