This is a silly thread despite the killer title. The bottom line is, as someone pointed out in another thread, all (maybe there are a couple superman types who can keep up without) top level pros dope to one degree or another, and it shouldn't take more than a couple active brain cells to figure that out.
If we really need to assign blame as the "dirtiest doping country" then all we need to do is count up the number of protour level riders by country. I won't invest the time to actually do that but it would seem that Spain wins. Or maybe the large number of recent Spanish cases means that the riders there are not very bright and have paid their protection money to the Spanish federation instead of directly to the UCI like certain riders of other nationalities seem to do.
Or maybe this is the UCI's revenge for the Spanish feds nose thumbing for so long in the Valverde case. The posiblities are almost endless, if we all put on our tinfoil thinking caps and get busy I'm sure we can come up with a ****load.
