The UCI is in on a doping cover-up? (And who are the five known riders?)

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

YIKES! As if the Armstrong thing weren't enough, now WADA is essentially accusing the UCI of covering up for known dopers.

And . . . who are the five dopers who got caught?

( and a sigh) This sport of pro cycling will never be cleaned up. What a shame.

This is likely to be a pretty active time for doping stories. It might make sense to keep it all in one thread so the board doesn't get overwhelmed with them.

Armstrong's story is past doping.

This is present.

Hopefully, not related.

Larry, Moe, Curly, Curly Joe, and Shemp.

This story is really becoming white noise to me at this point.
