Wasn't Ralf Aldag on the T Systems roster and admitted to EPO use with Zabel?

What was the question again?

Actually when you look at this list then I really should phrase the question along the lines of look who was doping:

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_doping_cases_in_cycling#2015

 

So this is not a doping thread and its been done ad infinitum but it pretty interesting to browse the condensed history of doping in cycling in one place.

 

Suffice to say, you must have some knowledge of chemistry to have ridden a bike from about 1990 onwards.

 

I hope Ralf finds that he is able to work on performance coaching without any need of other assistance for his subjects to extract peak performance from them.

Interesting read thanks !

I'm sure with Dr Carol Austin at the head of performance it will be well monitored.
