Should the guys like Rasmussen, Basso, Vino, Ricco, Landis, and Hamilton, be welcomed back into the Protour, and allowed to ride the Tour, and allowed to ride charged. My standpoint is, the current top echelon are charged, so why cannot these riders be given the same chance?
Were they doing anything different than Armstrong?
Landis has really had his life been torn down, partly his choice and fault, partly a victim of circumstance and bad counsel. But will the sport chew through some more sacrifices for the pyre. There was an Australian trackie who recently died, cant remember the name atm, who was a victim of the culture.
There has to be some consideration of the welfare of riders, and those in power must take responsibility.
So the question pose is, do you think these riders should be welcomed back, and should they be allowed to "do what the top echelon is doing". Read that as code for doping. If it does not show up it is not doping...
