Not sure whether this is in fact new, or not. Could just be the flesh on the bones of the last round of rumours.

this story has been lifted from the cycling press who reported it a few weeks ago.
Interesting though.

Not exactly a surprise

Lance still in touch with Dr Ferrari.

At least Lance has now retired and we can forget him and his peers and move on

I think LA is going to haunt us for a while longer yet.

Sometimes you just wish it would all stop, I'm sure LA does. Only he knows the real truth, and all that's going on now is about reptation and money. The sport has ceased to matter to most people involved (if they were ever bothered in the first place). Meanwhile, in the States, (American) football and baseball players get bigger and stronger, and while the money keeps rolling in from the fans, no-one is too worried how it's done... If anyone started big time on that lot, I suspect that it would be career shortening for them.
The only real loser is the "filthy" sport of cycling.

And nothing will change until the sport stops trying to hide away from what it has done and continues to do. Cycling will benefit when they are all finally removed.
