I wonder if cycling fans will reach a point at which they’ll say, “Enough already, we don’t even care who wins, let’s just put this one to bed”? Not that it would matter one way or the other, of course, because the parties involved are going to fight this one to the death, it seems.

From the TDFBlog:

The Chatenay-Malabry lab that initiated doping findings against 2006 Tour de France winner Floyd Landis admitted today (in Le Monde, in French) that its report on Landis’s B-sample includes the wrong number for the sample tested.

You can read the rest of it here. I’m not sure what it says about this specific case or its potential for changing the outcome, but in general terms I think it’s clear that any testing for doping has to be cleaned up - it has to be squeaky clean, like you could eat off it, for crying out loud - before anyone’s going to have faith in it. And without faith in the testing, where are we?
