I always wonder about riders who can't tell the difference between the
Caribbean and South America.

Drugs seized in Tour de la Guadeloupe
By Hedwig Kröner in Guadeloupe

In a controversial start to the Tour de la Guadeloupe, the riders arriving
from Venezuela were searched by airport customs. Various medical products
were found and confiscated for analysis and later confirmed to be EPO as
well as masking products. The riders were allowed to start the race, as the
officials present - including Jean Pitallier, president of the French
Cycling Federation - announced an upcoming judicial investigation.

After stage 1, two names were given in connection with the drug seizures:
Venezuelan Tony Linares, who was very active in the stage and part of the
breakaway, and Luis Castańeda from Colombia, riding for the Euro Mutuelle
U.C.C. team.

Although the investigation is serious, oddly enough there were no doping
controls at the stage finish.

Good point.

Whatever, though. Ass soon as you get South of the Mason Dixon line, it's
all the same to me...
