I looked around the web a little and couldn't find this. Is it a new test for EPO or was his blood O2 too high?

It was a positive test for Traces of EPO in his urine. I do not think he was over 50% hematocrit.
He is not going to the Olympics now.

Very disappointing!
Winning the World Championship Road Race and then taking the Race of The Falling Leaves, in Lombardy, one week later is an amazing achievement.
Or was it?
