He's been 'away' for at least 2 yrs now, how'd he get caught up in this one?

or is he just there 'on account'?
Really long story. Short answer, it appears that he may have been involved with Dr Fuentes for different performance enhancing drugs/additional blood doping and at different times from those for which he suffered the two year ban. SOME argue that if those things are true, it would constitute a second offense and a result in a life time ban. His current sponsor (Tinkoff Credit) has suspended him for the time being and he will not ride in the Giro. That race was his major goal for the year (although his results to date for the year would indicate that he would probably not have done very well).
