Eldron Posted January 29, 2016 Share I was wondering why there were no excuses... until now http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/news/latest-news/alberto-gallego-blames-laboratory-contamination-for-doping-positivep-209083 Former Caja Rural rider Alberto Gallego says insists he has never taken Stanzolol, having failed a test of the metabolite of testosterone. Spanish cyclist Alberto Gallego, who failed an anti-doping test three days into his professional career, blamed contamination yesterday for his positive result. Edit: And the clincher (excuse the cycling pun) "I’m a victim"This is one of the sad side effects of PEDs. He may be a victim but we've been fed so many BS lines about disappearing twins, auntie's cocaine cookies, naturally high everything etc that we are a little cynical. For me that's the worst part - the not knowing. Would there have been a different tdf winner if lance was clean? How many aspiring youngsters will we never see because they took the clean road? Would any of us that nrrowly missed podiums etc have been champions if everybody was clean? We'll never know.... andydude and Long Wheel Base 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
