Sky further reporting that he's surprised by the result, it was a high level of testosteron and the UCI (Cycling body) have confirmed the result.

The swiss based Phoneac team say that it was notified by the UCI that his sample showed a high level of Testosterone - EpiTestosterone after Stage 17 of the race. Landis is to ask for backup sample analysis to prove that it is from a natural process or a mistake. Landis has been suspended from the team and will be fired if the second test comes back positive.

Sky news then interrupted that to indicate that there are to be power cuts in London due to a lack of power.

EVERYONE who is big in cycling cheats, EVERYONE who is big in short-distance track cheats. Just consider it a lost cause and let them take anything they want.

Can someone refresh my memory about the story with this guy? He won even though he had a broken shoulder or something?

arthritic hip that needs hip-replacement

arthritic hips would use Celebrex to supress the pain - there is no excuse for the testosterone

I agree just let everyone take whatever they want so no one has an unfair advantage.
