(AP) – 50 minutes ago
PARIS — French prosecutors have reportedly launched a preliminary investigation against the Astana cycling team to examine syringes belonging to the squad during this year's Tour de France.
L'Equipe newspaper reported Tuesday on its Web site that prosecutors opened the case after "the discovery of several suspicious syringes in a container given by organizers to all the teams in order to collect the medical waste."
Tour de France winner Alberto Contador and third-place Lance Armstrong rode with Astana on this year's Tour. The Spaniard is still under contract with the Kazakh-funded team while the Texan left to launch his own squad, RadioShack.
According to L'Equipe, the syringes will be analyzed by a forensic lab called Toxlab, which is responsible for determining their content.
Gilbert Pepin, a doctor at the lab, was not available for comment and did not immediately respond to an e-mail from The Associated Press.
While there were no positive tests at this year's Tour, authorities did seize drugs that the French anti-doping agency's scientific adviser said raised questions.
The drugs — which include treatments for diabetes, high blood pressure and convulsions suffered by manic-depressives — are not banned but are "incongruous" in top-level athletes, said Professor Michel Rieu last week.
Rieu declined to say which teams the substances had been taken from, saying that it was part of a judicial investigation.

more here.Blood doping kits were discovered in a search of medical equipment belonging to Lance Armstrong's former (and Alberto Contador's current) Astana team during this year's Tour de France.
if their results from this year's Tour stand, then the sport is a sham. there shouldn't even be debate over who the kits belonged to. if these reports are proven, then the whole team should be disqualified.

Source: CyclingNewsTom Zirbel has announced he tested positive in an anti-doping test conducted by the United States Anti Doping Association (USADA) following the US Pro time trial championships on August 29, 2009. The A-sample returned positive for an endogenous steroid Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Zirbel awaits the response of the B sample.

. Balance of the article at Cyclingnews.com.Swedish rider Niklas Axelsson has tested positive for EPO for the second time in his career. The 36-year-old returned the positive control from a doping control conducted in September. He now faces a lifetime ban if the B-sample confirms the result...

There is some suggestion that Landis is getting a little edgeee...
More at Pappillon....According to a former professional cycling team director who spoke on the condition of anonymity, Floyd Landis may have issued a barely-veiled public threat to write a book exposing what could be his knowledge of less-than-ethical behavior on at least one of his former teams - most likely, Lance Armstrong's old USPS squad. ..

Reporter. Couldn't ignore what was going on in the end, but basically... if you ask too many questions you are frozen out by Lance & friends, and without a news feed you don't have a job in velo. So the reporters basically turn a blind eye. Now I understand why Bernard Kole didn't name any names.RobRollin wrote:Who wrote this? Former rider, directiff, sports masseuse?
