what the hell is going on? riders have been accused of doping and are getting dropped from the tour - most noteably, basso and ullrich.
you can read about it at cyclingnews.com
and a little blurb at SPEEDGOAT.COM on their blog. (and note the picture on the front page!)
pretty disappointing to see the names getting named, to see how widespread it is and to see riders literally go from racing to retirement within days.
on the good side, though, it looks like at least to this point, the US riders are clean. look for the discovery team to be up there, landis, etc. should be a good show for the US crowd.
and for us mountain riders - should be interesting to see how cadel evans and rasumussen do this year.
so, with the tour coming up this weekend, i may be taking some time off from the blog for a little "r and r". when i get back, look out for some pics, some reviews and plans for nationals and the likes.
with that - sologoat out.

Did you see/hear that Hendershot broke his arm at his last 24 this past weekend. There is a blurb about it in the Industry News forum on MTBR
