petatodd Posted July 17, 2012 Author Posted July 17, 2012 http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/uci-announces-adverse-analytical-finding-for-frank-schleck-at-tour-de-france Diuretic found in urine sample taken on July 14Earlier today, the UCI advised Luxembourger Fränk Schleck (RadioShack-Nissan) of an Adverse Analytical Finding in a urine sample collected from him at an in-competition test at the Tour de France on July 14, 2012.If only they had been this vigilant when the Texan peed.
LukeV-2 Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Its almost like an attack on him... He's not even performing so if he is on something its not working.
Agteros Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 So his miraculous recovery of form was not such a miracle? Or is the finding easily explained as a misunderstanding, lab fault or some such thing, and his new-found better in-tour form genuine?
Agteros Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Its almost like an attack on him... He's not even performing so if he is on something its not working.True, but he has started making guest appearances at the front of the peloton ... greenlight 1
LukeV-2 Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 True, but he has started making guest appearances at the front of the peloton ... Hmmmmm.... I hate this doping issue.. With a passion... Agteros and greenlight 2
Agteros Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 (edited) Velonation link: http://bit.ly/NutEYS UCI wants him removed from tour, although finding does not required automatic suspension Maybe he used the diuretic to thin down before the mountains so he can get to the finish before the flamme rouge?

Metzet Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 True, but he has started making guest appearances at the front of the peloton ... and then faded to the back again... highs and lows of diuretics.. greenlight and Grondpad 2
Agteros Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 diuretics - Explain pls...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diuretic basically it make you lose water via urine, like coffee or guava juice...
Agteros Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 and then faded to the back again... highs and lows of diuretics.. Tjop... quickly make appearance at the front before taking a water break at the back again Frek Sleg gedink daar Frank Schleck
LukeV-2 Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Thats intense.. Is it common among cyclists??? He is already so thin!!!!
Agteros Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Oh, and we have to thank Frank for saving us from the raging Nokia vs the world debate raging elsewhere! petatodd 1
Agteros Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Thats intense.. Is it common among cyclists??? He is already so thin!!!!I doubt he used is for that reason. Seems like it can mask/hide the presence of PEDs, hence it being on the 'bad' list
LukeV-2 Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 I don't know how riders could dope though?? Way too much on the line...
