Landis+doping=done cycling for 4 years

Posted September 21st, 2007 by mike

It seems as if the USADA has proved that Floyd Landis did indeed cheat during the 2006 Tour de France posting an 11 to 1 testosterone-to-epitestosterone (normal range is 4 to 1). Landis is the first tour champ in over 100 years to be stripped of the title. Quite a shame.  He was given a 2 year ban from all cycling and an extra 2 year ban from any racing.

Feel free to read all about it on Velonews.  It is quite a lengthy read.  Also, if interested, they posted an 84 page .PDF file of the full text of the case.
