E-caps work - are they illegal? If someone "couriered" e-caps across the Atlantic would you treat it as if they were drug runners? |

Whitney Richards, 31, a one-time Colorado-based cross-country racer, told VeloNews that in March of 2002, Rasmussen asked him to transport a box containing cycling shoes. But the shoebox, according to Richards, actually contained bags of an American-made human blood substitute. None of the information Richards provided VeloNews involves allegations of current doping." So ... knowing that there would have to be some lead time for Walsh's book; AND that there's no way they could have known that Rasmussen would be leading the Tour at this point, I'm thinking that the story is true ... At the very least, Whitney Richard has been telling it long enough to give it some sense of credibility, since he told it to Walsh in 2002/2003. The Velonews article says that he told it to Velonews "that same year" (2002). They didn't print it because Richards didn't want to be identified, but I think we can rely on Velonews's word that he's been telling it for some time. Of course it would have been somewhat newsworthy then since Rasmussen was already MTB world champ, but obviously Richards wasn't telling it to get attention. At worst one would have to assume that he was trying to get back at Rasmussen for some reason, and that seems unlikely given his insistence then on not naming Rasmussen, and his friend who corroborates the story. Other people have couriered this or that pill (didn't Emma whatshername allegedly bring LANCE something?) but putting someone in the position of carrying blood substitute bags on an international flight would be a new level of brazenness, into Willy Voet or Edita Rumsas territory. Ben These shoes transmit power to the pedals more effectively I'm sure the image of the sport would be improved by having winners of whom no ill is said. We're fresh out of those. So let's let it be decided on the road. Ron |

My discomfort with the character shown in the Hemopure-mule story expresses my rooting preferences as a fan, not as a prescriptive call for action. McQuaid, as the leader of the sport, nominally has an obligation to be less biased than a fan. On the other hand, he's right, it _is_ an image problem. However, the UCI's approach to cycling's image problems has generally not been a well thought out plan. Ben |
