will the french just never give up, or is floyd landis the ‘unidentified rider’ who failed the drug test after stage 17 of the tour de france?

the story just broke that landis may be involved, himself, in a doping scandal that could result in his fairytale tour win being revoked.

it’s always easy to say that someone must have cheated to have won such a difficult stage in such an incredible manner. however, everyone should be innocent until proven guilty. all the same, if landis is, indeed, found guilty, i imagine that the public shame upon the tour, cycling and US cyclists will amount to little compared to the shame upon his family.

oh, floyd…you’re not a doper, or are you? lance won’t dance to that tune with you!
