I know cycling isn't the most popular of sports, but this is a pretty big story the day before the sport's premiere event is set to begin. And with it's two biggest personalities now that Armstrong isn't there.

Cycling is the only sport that actually wants to catch the dopers and punish them. 58 riders have been named, this could wind up bigger than the "Festina Affair" of 98. Looks like this Tour is ruined.

With all these riders falling out, I think we should put together Team HoyaTalk. I'll be the Lance of the group everyone supports for the victory... anyone care to ride shotgun?

Of course, I'd probably have to buy a bike first...
