This all happens roughly at the same time as the UCI releases a pressrelease saying yet another rider in the tour de france has used illegal doping.
If not Landis..its one its one hell of a coincidence

I'd have to agree that it looks fishy, but from the article i linked to:
Quote:
The International Cycling Union said Wednesday that an unidentified cyclist turned in a positive doping test during the Tour, widening the scandal that gripped this year's race before it began.
His name, team and nationality won't be released until the testing process is completed, including the analysis of a backup sample.
But the sport's governing body did say the rider's team and national federation were notified, as well as national and world anti-doping authorities. USA Cycling has not been contacted by UCI, spokesman Andy Lee said.

Surely they would have said no comment instead of saying they hadn't been contacted.
