Slowest Rider to Test Positive?

[Oldman]

In and effort to gain some perspective on the effects of PED use could forum members nominate the Bustee that had the least results as a rider? Not everyone benefits if they don't know the application techniques.

Mickael Larpe? 122 career CQ points.

 

[Arnout]

All the amateurs.

Li Fuyu from China

Has more career CQ points then Larpe suprisingly. Fuyu has 189.

Chodroff has to be up there.

Chodroff has to be up there.

We might have a winner. Does he get off on a technicality however since he did not actually test positive but in fact admitted to having purchased EPO (when presented with incontrovertible proof that they had him)?

OK it no longer matters whether Chodroff gets off on a technicality or not.

Edit: I'm thinking this guy also takes biggest tool award, even from the US masters that we are waiting to hear about.

I still cast my vote for Fred Chodroff. He was 9th in the USPro TT. 9th! Less than 2 years after racing as a cat. 3. Clearly an awesome engine on awesome Pappasian sauce.

But he gets my vote because, unless it was a TT favoring the drug-adldled... Fred Chodroff was a zero.

In fact, he struggled in Criteriums because they are Events that Require Turning Your Bike.

Winner.

This guy is a doctor and he gets busted for using PEDs? How does he keep his medical license?

Bet he doesn't.

 

[Oldman]

Bet he doesn't.

That is poetic justice.

Yeah, but the other guy got 8th in a State Crit champ. in a part of the world where there were only 8 starters in his class, and we don't even know if it was masters or elite. It doesn't really matter though as it was pointed out that 8th was also DFL. One should not have to dope to finish last, if you do then you are
doing it wrong.
He is the winner, Chodroff at least was sucking against some real competition.

There are Cat 1's and other "no name" riders who have come up positive. Riders that are rarely heard of. How fast really was Mitch Comardo before he popped positive?

Random unknown guy from the wikipedia list:
Giovanni Carini - four seasons and 48 CQ points.

Giovanni CARINI won the 2008 Italian Elite-2 National Championships, on 28 June, but tested positive for EPO in this race. He was disqualified and suspended for 2 years by the Italian federation, until 19 October 2010.

 

[Alpe d'Huez]

I have never even heard of those guys. Even after following those links, I still drew a blank. And I thought I followed the sport...

Willy Voet confessed to trying out PEDs as a soigneur, does that count.

 

[2beacoup]

All the amateurs.

Replace all with many, add some hobby riders and I agree.

 

[TdFLanterne]

Slowest TdF doping rider

I nominate Leonardo Piepoli who was busted for CERA - he is a diminutive mountain climber extraordinare, but not so speedy in the flats. He was Lanterne Rouge of the 2005 Tour de France for the first 3 consecutive stages.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

plenty of local heroes listed in the wikipedia entry:

Joey D'Antoni for one

Me. I'd totally get popped for DHEA if I were to race and test now, and I would have to race citizen at this point.

Funny though, yesterday as I was commuting to school, some douche came flying by about 100 feet past a stoplight and almost brushed my arm in doing so. He was riding some common brand carbon bike, and didn't speak to warn me he was overtaking or even give a wave as went by. I think he was surprised when I pulled up to him on a mountain bike with slicks and rode his pull for awhile. I would have pulled up beside and made nicey nicey talk, but I was on mtn bike gearing, had 30 pounds of case books on my back, and he seemed more interested in looking like a fast guy roadie too cool for you douchewhistle, so I just sucked his wheel. Then when faced with shooting across 10 feet of dirt and taking the long way around or stopping for the light, I went for the scenic route and he took the stoplight option (I guess because he didn't want to puncture those pretty little Conti's). Anyway, I decided to keep the pressure on the pedals as I was feeling pretty good...he didn't catch me again.

I can't stand people who don't wave.

DHEA is awesome - if you're a post-menopausal woman...
