THERE is growing speculation across Europe that Ivan Basso, Jan Ullrich and Floyd Landis may be free to race in the 2007 Tour de France, which starts in London, if doping charges against the riders are dismissed.
Great. The prospect of yet another Tour under a cloud.
Of course the "if doping charges against the riders are dismissed" is a big "if." Landis's lawyer, Howard Jacobs is the same fellow who lost Tyler Hamilton's appeal.
In the dark of the moon, in the flying snow, in the dead of winter,
war spreading, families dying, the world in danger,
I walk the rocky hillside, sowing clover.
