mathieu30 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 "I have never taken any banned substance, including testosterone. I was the strongest man in the Tour de France, and that is why I am the champion. I will fight these charges with the same determination and intensity that I bring to my training and racing. It is now my goal to clear my name and restore what I worked so hard to achieve." -Floyd Landis The International Cycling Union (UCI) today announced that the results of the 'B' analysis conducted on Floyd Landis's urine sample of July 20, 2006 are consistent with the findings of the 'A' sample. A UCI source confirmed that an Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry test (IRMS) has been done, revealing the presence of exogenous testosterone (contained within, but originating from outside the body) in the sample. Both samples were taken following Landis's victory in stage 17 of the Tour de France. Landis will pursue the appeal procedures established by the UCI in order to overturn the laboratory results. It is expected that the matter will now be referred to USA Cycling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanpuck33 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 An infuriating ending for what was once such a feel good story, perhaps the best of the year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoZed Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I'm starting to agree with Pierre Foglia (from La Presse). He says that since everyone in cycling is doped up, they should make it mandatory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
