60% of 2006 TdF riders used banned substances

The headline is not wrong. 60% of the riders in this year's Tour de France were using banned substances. They all got away with it because they had medical exemptions. Globe

More shit hitting the fan. Several pro-cyclists homes including
Jan Ullrich's were raided in Europe today.

well no shit. since all of those substances have a legitimate medical use and many of them for relatively common problems (ie. skin lesions, allergies...). i mean we're not talking crystal meth and cocaine here. caffiene and psuedoephrine are on the list and they are found in many over the counter drugs.
