Are you drunk?He tested positive, he must be a witch... Burn him!

What tripe.
You are assuming that they had a choice.
Its use to bulk up cattle is endemic in Japan and China.
Cyclists in their position do not have a freezer van with approved meat stocks from a UK farm that is certified ethically safe.
They eat local produce and that is one of the issues with this particular drug.
Unfortunately there is no way to distinguish between doping and accident, and there will always be the problem of what to do with these riders.
I am only surmising, but If I were in that situation, knowing that there was no way I could ever prove my innocence, and even if I did there would be those who would still think I was doping.............then it would be a very dark place to be in
DON'T EAT BEEF OR PORK IN CHINA!!!
If a professional cyclist is unaware of that he's a fool.
Oh ffs. In a situation like this - where someone attempts suicide after being caught out i think its safe to assume that the person is guilty of the charges.
Still the cyclist. He's the one who has been warned by WADA to steer (geddit?) clear of meat in China, and he's the one who will suffer from the consequences.Team chef puts food in front of the cyclist - cyclist eats it.
Who is the fool?

well put sir.I feel very sorry for the rider, reading reports it seems that the issue was with abusive comments in social media following the leaking of a positive test. If that was enough to depress him into wanting to take his own life, he needs help, and quickly. No-one should have to put up with the sort of disgusting abuse that is sometimes seen on social media.
This makes the Mickle comments more than unfortunate. I'll say no more on that subject, they are unworthy of response.
The test for clenbuterol was refined not long before the Contador positive, and can detect evidence of absolutely minute quantities of this substance. Before this development it may well have been that contaminated food would produce such low readings that they could not be determined properly, and many riders may have been affected.
Odd though some people seem to find it, as a pro you race where you are told, and if the team chef produces food you trust him. If this was the case (and there is no evidence either way in the public domain, quite rightly) then the rider should get the benefit of the doubt. If the result shows a high reading (again unknown) then there may be a different reading.
All that is certain is that a young rider ended up being stomach pumped because he was shattered and depressed by what had happened, and he needs support, not pointless speculative comments from know-nothings.
