• I thought he had never been tested positive.

    He never did officially. There were some tests made on 1999 Tour samples a few years later that turned up traces of EPO in a blood sample, and a leaked document linked the numbers on the sample (cos naturally they don't write the riders names on!) to Lance.

    +1 on the Pantani book too, it really made me feel for the guy, and I agree that it was the high haematocrit reading that did for him in the end. Poor fucker
