When I get blood removed for Hemachromatosis, I ask them to give it back to me so I can put it in the fridge, but they won't.

BTW Rick, we have to get on the program for the Merckx 2 man tt.

Wow that was quite a read...nice of him to not bother with the B test, but that's far from coming 'clean'. Funny how everyone says the same thing when they get caught about having just started doping and that it didn't really help, yeah right, what a load of bullshit. And what kind of idiot who's been seriously racing for over 30 years doesn't know about the dangers of EPO, yeah right, particularly one who's taken it!!!

Reading between the lines, I see a man who doesn't have enough, other than cycling, in his life.

On Sandi's link, I hope Hammer Nutrition has a legal staff and lots of budget for same. The odor/smell of a cause of action there perhaps...

Maybe if enough customers email them stating they will no longer take their sups do to this case, the smell will get deep enough up their bippies to do something. ;)

What a Douche...

Well, I've ridden at quite a lot of State and National Masters titles here in Australia, and I can't recall ever seeing any testing take place.

Drug testing is costly and, unless the race organizers or a national sanctioning body are willing to underwrite it, it's not going to be done.

The UCI, ASO and other Pro organizations have the financial resources and necessity for testing but the amature bodies don't.
