Ah!
Full marks for the decision to ban Boonen from the tour, I think he should be banned completely for at least 2 years though! The point that he only took the drug 'recreationally' is irrelevant. It begs the question though, if this guy, one of cycling's 'greats' snorts coke whenever he has a day off, what's his views on other more 'lucrative' drug taking.
You gotta love these guys. Imagine if somebody posted a pic of Boonen snorting up? Thats a nice role model for young cyclists everywhere
And before I go, cycling fans, another beauty from former drug cheat and TDF winner Bjarne Riis, on the subject of Team CSC being renamed Saxobank:
'With Saxo Bank, we have found the perfect partner for the future," said Riis in a statement. "We are extremely proud to become associated with such a strong brand and a company that has a great passion for our team and our values."
Now, I would be very interested to know what 'values' Bjarne has that he is so keen to share... If Saxobank indeed share Bjarne's 'values' then we are indeed in for a very pharmaceutical July....
ride safe in the rainy season ya'll!
