Default This should make for an interesting Tour de France

Looks like in addition to the usual support vehicles, they'll need to have a paddy wagon following the peloton this year.

I'm sure they will follow, investigate and harrass as many cyclists as possible but if it's anyone in soccer or tennis or race car driving caught with dope it will be swept under the carpet just like it was for Operation Puerco!

i think it sucks. i like it much better when more riders are doping. it makes for closer racing.
