I am confused regarding this. We are well into the racing season and their appears to me to be a rash of drug positives at TdF. IMO, there are 2 options to this

1. ASO is more demanding and scrupulous in their test regimes.
2. To compete in TdF you need to be 'on something' as the physical demand of 3 weeks is too much.

As I said in the other thread:

They're reporting on Dutch TV that the French anti-doping labs have developed a new system that detects the previously undetectable third generation of EPO. If so, expect more riders to get caught in the days ahead.
