That could get interesting.
Didn't see all of it in Danish Television, but he did admit taking Epo in
the period 1993-1998.
Does this mean that Floyd Landis will not even be the first Tour de
France winner to be stripped of the title?
That's a good one. Riis might even steal that distinction from him.
But, what about Garin in 1904? Was he stripped of the title or just
DQ'd? I thought the official results of that edition weren't provided
until some months after the race.
Some pretty sad epilogues being written by the recent TdF champs--
1996 Riis-- EPO admission
1997 Ullrich-- Puerto implications, etc.
1998 Pantani-- RIP
2006 Landis-- 'nuff said
Include the Armstrong Era in there if you want but I ain't touchin'
that one !!!
