Subject: Oh, great... now Periero is threatening to quit
|
He got a gift of 30 minutes last July, which he's now proclaiming wasn't a gift but the results of being smart enough to get into the right breakaway AND now that HIS name is being sullied about he's threatening to quit the sport if asked to provide a DNA sample. He can't even wait for his second big gift, that being the de facto victory in the '06 TdF. How ironical would it be if he were to walk away due to implications in Puerto before he was declared the winner of last year's tour?

"I am bored and tired of the fact that people are accused only for signs. We have to realise a general change in the cycling, at all levels, but, above all, in the direction. It's outrageous that we, the riders, have to prove our innocence. I am willing to deliver all, but if I have to prove my innocence via my DNA, I will leave cycling, because it's clear that cycling in this form is not worth it." I'm not sure from the stories who to attribute those statements to? Translation problems maybe? Bill C

I just read, this evening, two dispatches (one French, one Spanish) where he has specifically agreed to offer a sample, now. I am tempted to call you a liar, but I will offer you the opportunity to show reliable evidence that your crap has any authenticity. -- Bonne route ! Sandy Verneuil-sur-Seine FR

It's on cyclingnews.com. I'm not saying what's on the CN website is right, but the OP didn't fabricate the story himself. -- Bill Asher
