Tyler Hamilton of Rock Racing: 2009 Amgen Tour of California Prologue

Hamilton was scheduled to race in this week’s Vuelta Castilla y Leรณn stage race but pulled out because of bronchitis, according to Rock Racing. Francisco Mancebo took Hamilton’s place as team leader for Rock Racing.

Other nonsense that I originally published about Hamilton deleted, although it lives forever in the world of RSS.

  7. All cycling race results should be regarded as "preliminary". They become "official" only when the drug test results are in.

    This is why I have given up on watching the races. The guy who crosses the finish line first could still be disqualified.

  9. Just a small correction: Hamilton was originally suspended for Homologous Blood Doping (injected someone else's red blood cells into his system) and not for EPO.

  13. Repeating rumors is neither fair nor ethical. Works the same in cycling and politics. Is it worth potentially damaging a person's reputation to repeat stories with no basis in fact? Hamilton did the crime and served his time. He's starting over with a clean slate. If he gets nailed again, we'll find out from legitimate sources soon enough.

    I turn to this site for good nuggets of solid information. This is totally not something I expected here or on Twitter.
