Thumbs down Tour De France

Any cycling fans here? I am.....

I wonder if the storied race will recover from last year's scandal to this year's rolling nightmare.

Think about it..... Stripping the Mellow Johnny from Landis from last year and taking the leader of this year's tour out of the race.

Its already been a problem during this tour before what happened today to chickenlegs and to Rabobank. The whole astana team was pulled after Vino tested +for doping. T mobile ridiculed and Germany pulled out of broadcasting last week. And today, confidis is out due to + testosterone in one of the riders. Its a big problem, and it will take cycling some time to clean up. They can't possibly expect to do it in 1-2 years. True cycling fans will be there in the end...because its an awesome sport.
