It is sad in a way. Especially since people go around talking about how all these people were cheats (probably right on this) and how the tour is better off without them and how this is a "clean" TdF this year. Seems to me like these few racers will be the scapegoats for the entire sport. A few more years down the road, something like this will happen again.
