Is it just me or does this seem a little crazy. Tom Boonen has been a great feature at the tour in recent years, he is a hugely exciting cyclist. With no reigning champion at the Tour and with Contador;s team banned, now no reigning green jersey, with Contador also the white jersey and Discovery Channel the team winners, only Soler is still in it.
Boonen’s crime seems to be one of stupidity. Cocaine is not a banned substance outside of racing. He hasn’t been charged by the police, but has been prevented from taking part in the Tour. He is a role model and as such his behaviour should reflect this, but banning from the Tour seems to me to a step to far.
I’m going for a Leipheimer win overall and Zabel for the yellow….
