This could get interesting. This story has been reported by NY Times.

Further, ZDF, a German television station is threatening to drop coverage of TdF. Phonak and Liberty Mutual are dropping or have already dropped team sponsorships.

I wonder if they can test for synthetic epitestosterone. Perhaps he and other riders have been taking epitestosterone to manage the ratio.

Just a WAG. Landis did something that caused a dramatic drop in epitestosterone, exposing the high (artificial) testosterone level.

Tip of the iceberg? Will they be running carbon isotope tests on previous samples from earlier races?

Will they be doing it on other riders?

Ladies and gentlemen, place your bets!

I am betting on the chemists. Will Landis become as well known as Bonds? Not sure on that, but I think they will prove him guilty.
