cycling detour: landis hearing

Found a great blog – trust but verify - that is doing liveblogging from the landis hearing.  I have no idea whether or not landis doped in france, but reading the today’s and yesterday’s testimony sure makes the french lab accusing him of doping look like a bunch of keystone cops.  Pathetic.  Anyway, here’s a quote that caught my eye:

Q (landis atty): concusion about their ability and competence to operate the instruments.

A (

davis landis expert witness): they (lndd operators) clearly did not understand the instrument. I had to help them load the software on the machine [referring to testing of b sample with

davis
as landis’s rep observing test]. They were obviously trying to help each other during the reprocessing and did not generally know how the software worked.

Wow.
