Positive in 1993

damn youre good

 

[issoisso]

damn youre good

You'll get a few more names positive if you go with members of the team, instead of just members of the Tour squad

Mondini, Peron, White (yes, Matt White, positive. Not common knowledge, is it?), and so on

 

[Anonymous]

wonder if Victor Hugo Pena is someone who might be willing to blab.. hard to beleive he was at postal, phonak and rock and was clean the whole time.

Especially given his results. Top 10 at the Giro without massive Casar-style breakaways? Not bloody likely

 

[Anonymous]

time to go out on the bike.. will do the other 2 years later.. as i thought though, pretty telling..

How did White get pinged?

 

[issoisso]

How did White get pinged?

I don't know. I've searched for it a few times in the past, but I could only ever find that he tested positive in 1998. Never for what, exactly.

Other than that, he was named by Landis as being on EPO.

 

[trudat]

White failed to file papers relating to his use of salbutamol... the equivilant to a TUE form back then. He received a public warning and maybe a fine- can't remember about the fine.
I'd hardly call this instance by itself suspect... but he did ride along side F. Casagrande during his dominant years in 1999 and 2000 at the Giro. Hard to beleive he never touched a drop....

 

[BroDeal]

Livingston's name was found in Dr. Ferrari's files.

 

[thehog]

From the 2009 team we need to add Kloden & Levi. Kloden from Freiburg & Levi's positive from 1996. Levi also rode fir Gerosteiner which was fingered by Kohl as dirty to the core.

 

[VeloCity]

Just kidding cause it ain't going to happen, but how funny would it be if Contador were to extract a bit of revenge by being the first to step forward and support Floyd with claims that he saw Armstrong doping while they were teammates on Astana?

 

[Anonymous]

i shall go through later and do the rest of the known dopers in red, and do green or something for strong evidence they doped.. sure there will be only a couple left after that. been too busy today enjoying the sun

BOOM!

My head just exploded.

If Armstrong was Contador and the positions were reversed, he'd do it in a second. #cynical

 

[Pantani_lives]

Pascal Deramé (1999) looks like the only clean rider to me.
