Kulo nyaka, i-Cyclingnews igubha iminyaka engama-25 yayo. Ukuze kukhunjulwe lesi sigameko esibalulekile, ithimba labahleli lizoshicilela imisebenzi yezemidlalo engu-25 ebheka emuva eminyakeni engama-25 edlule.
Intuthuko ye-Cyclingnews ibonakalisa kakhulu intuthuko ye-inthanethi yonke. Indlela isayithi elishicilela futhi libika ngayo izindaba - kusukela ezindabeni zansuku zonke ezixutshwe nemiphumela, ehlanganiswe ngemithombo ehlukahlukene nge-imeyili, kuya ezindabeni, imiphumela kanye nezici ozibonayo namuhla ezigeleza ngokushesha futhi zithuthuka ngokushesha. Isivinini se-inthanethi.
Njengoba iwebhusayithi ikhula, ukuphuthuma kokuqukethwe kuyanda. Lapho kuvela ihlazo likaFestina ku-Tour de France ka-1998, i-Cyclingnews yayiseyintsha. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, abagibeli bamabhayisikili bathuthela kwi-inthanethi ukuze bafunde izindaba futhi baxoxe ngemicimbi emaqenjini ezindaba nasezinkundleni zokuxhumana. Kamuva, ezinkundleni zokuxhumana, abagibeli bamabhayisikili baqala ukuthola ukuthi ukuziphatha kwabo kokusebenzisa izidakamizwa ngokuzumayo kwaba sobala kakhulu. Eminyakeni eyisishiyagalombili kamuva, njengoba isikhuthazi esikhulu esilandelayo saqhuma nePuerto Rico Opera House, izimbambo ezingcolile zomdlalo zadalulwa kahle, ngempela futhi ngendlela ehlazisayo.
Ngesikhathi i-Cyclingnews iqala ukusebenza ngo-1995, kwakunamawebhusayithi angaba ngu-23,500 kuphela, futhi abasebenzisi abayizigidi ezingu-40 bathola ulwazi nge-Netscape Navigator, i-Internet Explorer noma i-AOL. Iningi labasebenzisi lise-US, futhi amasayithi ombhalo oxhumano lwe-dial-up ahamba kancane kakhulu ku-56kbps noma ngaphansi, yingakho okuthunyelwe kokuqala kwe-Cyclingnews kwakhiwe kakhulu okuthunyelwe okukodwa - isizathu esenza imiphumela, izindaba kanye nezingxoxo zixutshwe ndawonye - okuqukethwe okuhlinzekwe ngumsebenzisi kufanele kulinde ikhasi ukuthi lilayishe.
Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, umdlalo wanikezwa ikhasi lawo, kodwa ngenxa yenani elikhulu lemiphumela ekhishwe, izindaba zaqhubeka nokuvela ezinguqulweni eziningi kwaze kwaba yilapho indawo ihlelwa kabusha ngo-2009.
Ijubane elixegayo lezinhlelo zokushicilela ezifana nephephandaba lishintshile, isivinini sokufinyelela i-broadband sesisabalele kakhulu, futhi abasebenzisi bakhuphukile: ngo-2006, kwakunabasebenzisi ababalelwa ezigidini ezingu-700, futhi manje cishe u-60% weplanethi useku-inthanethi.
Njengoba i-inthanethi inkulu futhi ishesha, kwavela inkathi yamabhayisikili e-EPO aqhutshwa amarokhethi: uma uLance Armstrong evutha, khona-ke ezinye izindaba ngeke ziqhume njenge-Operación Puerto, futhi ochungechungeni lwezindaba olunesihloko esithi “News Flash” kwabikwa.
I-Festina scandal - ebizwa ngokufanele ngokuthi "isibuyekezo se-drug scandal" - yayingomunye wemibiko yezindaba yokuqala, kodwa kwaze kwaba yilapho kuklanywa kabusha okukhulu kwesayithi ngo-2002 lapho kwakhishwa khona i-"News Flash" yokuqala esemthethweni: emihlanu yonyaka. I-wildcard Tour de France.
E-Giro d'Italia ngo-2002, abagibeli ababili babethelwe i-NESP (iprotheni entsha ye-erythropoietin, inguqulo ethuthukisiwe ye-EPO), uStefano Garzelli wavinjelwa ukuthatha imithi yokukhipha isisu, kanti i-cocaine kaGilberto Simoni yabonakala ilungile - Lokhu kwabangela ukuthi iqembu lakhe le-Saeco lilahlekelwe amaphuzu alo e-wildcard ku-Tour de France. Zonke lezi zindaba ezinkulu zifanele ukubukelwa.
Ezinye izihloko zezindaba zifaka phakathi i-Team Coast kaJan Ullrich, ukuwa kweBianchi ngo-2003 kanye nokuzijabulisa, ukufa kuka-Andrei Kivilev, kanye ne-UCI World Athletics Championships eyasuswa eShayina ngenxa yobhubhane lwe-SARS-1, uMarco Pantani washona, kodwa kuvela ukuthi ukusebenzisa izidakamizwa kuyizindaba ezivame kakhulu ezisanda kuphuma.
I-NAS yahlasela iGiro d'Italia, yasebenzisa izidakamizwa zikaRaimondas Rumsas, amaphoyisa ahlasela indlunkulu yeCofidis ngo-2004, kwathi ukudalulwa kukaJesus Manzano kaKelme kwavimbela iqembu ukuba lingadlali kwiTour de France.
Bese kuba nezici ezinhle ze-EPO: uDavid Bluelands, uPhilip Meheger, ukuvuma kukaDavid Miller. Kwabe sekufika amacala okuphinga igazi likaTyler Hamilton noSantiago Perez.
Umhleli wesikhathi eside uJeff Jones (1999-2006) ukhumbule ukuthi ikhasi lasekhaya le-Cyclingnews lalisetshenziselwa kakhulu imiphumela yomdlalo. Umjaho ngamunye unezixhumanisi eziningi esigabeni ngasinye, okwenza ikhasi lasekhaya libe matasa kakhulu. Uthe kuzoba nzima ukushicilela izindaba zomuntu siqu mayelana nezinhlelo zokusebenza.
UJones uthe: “Nsuku zonke kunokuqukethwe okuningi kakhulu okungafakwa ekhasini eliyisiqalo.” “Sekumatasa kakhulu kakade, sizama ukukucindezela kancane ngangokunokwenzeka.”
Kulezi zinsuku, kuphela lapho izindaba ziphuthuma kancane noma zivusa isithakazelo esikhulu kubafundi, lapho inguqulo eyodwa noma ezimbili zezindaba ziphambuka khona kokujwayelekile. Kuze kube ngu-2004, izindaba zavela izikhathi ezingaphezu kweshumi nambili ngonyaka. Kodwa-ke, lapho kuvela icala lokusebenzisa izidakamizwa, ngokuqinisekile kuzoholela enanini elikhulu lezinkinga zezindaba.
Uma sibheka umhla zingama-22 kuMandulo 2004 njengesibonelo, uTyler Hamilton waba ngumsubathi wokuqala owake wahlolwa ukuthi une-HIV ngenxa yokumpontshelwa igazi elifanayo - kwaba yizincwadi ezintathu ezengeziwe ezinsukwini ezimbili, futhi kuyo yonke indaba yakhe kwavela ezinye izindaba eziningi ngesikhathi senqubo yokudlulisa icala. Kodwa akukho okufana no-2006.
Ngomhlaka-23 Meyi 2006, kwaba nendaba eyayiveza izenzakalo ezinkulu zokwenziwa kwebhiya eSpain: “Umqondisi weLiberty Seguros uManolo Saiz waboshwa ngecala lokusebenzisa izidakamizwa.” Kuzoba yinkomba ende kunazo zonke emlandweni weCyclingnews.
Ngemva kwezinyanga eziningi zokuthinta ucingo kanye nokuqapha, kanye nokubuka abasubathi befika behamba, abaphenyi base-Unidad Centro Operativo (UCO) kanye namaphoyisa aseSpain avamile bahlasela ifulethi likadokotela wangaphambili weqembu laseKelme kanye "nodokotela wezifo zabesifazane" u-Eufemiano Fuentes. Bathole ama-steroid amaningi nama-hormone lapho, cishe izikhwama zegazi ezingama-200, ifriji eyanele kanye nemishini yokugcina amashumi noma amakhulu abasubathi.
Umphathi weLiberty Seguros uManolo Saiz-wathatha isikhwama semali (ama-euro angu-60,000 ngemali)-kwathi abanye abantu abane baboshwa, okuhlanganisa noFuentes, uJosé Luis Merino Batres, ophethe ilabhorethri eMadrid. U-Alberto Leon, umgijimi wamabhayisikili asezintabeni ochwepheshe, usolwa ngokusebenza njengenxusa; uJose Ignacio Labarta, umsizi womqondisi wezemidlalo weKomidi Lezemidlalo Likazwelonke laseValencia.
Ngokusho kwe-Cyclingnews, uFuentes usolwa ngokusiza umgibeli “umkhuba ongekho emthethweni wokumpompela igazi ngokuzenzakalelayo kumgibeli ngesikhathi somdlalo wesiteji. Lokhu kungenye yezinto ezikhuthazayo okunzima kakhulu ukuzithola ngoba kusebenzisa igazi lomgibeli uqobo.”
UJosé Merino kwenzeka ukuthi wayefana noMerino okukhulunywe ngaye ebufakazini bukaJesus Manzano obuqhumayo, owazama ukudalula le mikhuba yokusebenzisa izidakamizwa eminyakeni emibili edlule, kodwa wahlekwa usulu futhi waze wahlekwa usulu ngontanga yakhe. Wasongelwa.
KwakungoMeyi kuphela lapho iNdebe yase-Italy yayicishe iphele khona. Umholi u-Ivan Basso waphoqeleka ukuthi akhiphe isitatimende sokuphika ngoba abezindaba baseSpain bamfaka ohlwini lwekhodi yeFuentes. Kamuva uvela ngokusebenzisa igama lesilwane sasekhaya somgibeli.
Ngokushesha, njengoba uLiberty Seguros ethola ukwesekwa eqenjini, iqembu likaSaiz lilwela ukusinda. Eminyakeni embalwa edlule, yiPhonak eyaba nezigameko zokusebenzisa izidakamizwa noHamilton noPerez. Ngemva kokuba u-Oscar Sevilla engenile emtholampilo “ngohlelo lokuqeqeshwa,” nazo zabuyekezwa yi-T-Mobile.
Ngemva kwalesi sihlava okuthiwa sikhona, uPhonak washiya umdlalo wesibili phakathi kukaSantiago Botero noJose Enrique Gutierrez (ibutho lase-Italy), kwathi uValenciana DS uJose Ignacio Labarta wasula esikhundleni, naphezu kokukhononda ngokuthi akanacala. UPhonak uthe ikusasa layo lincike kuTour de France noFreud Landis.
Kusele amasonto ambalwa nje ngaphambi komdlalo we-Tour de France, iqembu le-Seitz lasindiswa. Ngenxa ka-Alexander Vinokourov, owathi, ngokusekelwa okukhulu yiKazakhstan yakubo, wenza i-Astana yaba umxhasi wesicoco. Ngenxa yempikiswano ngelayisensi yeqembu, iqembu ladlala okokuqala eCerterium du Dauphine njengoba uWürth noSaiz beshiya iqembu.
Maphakathi noJuni, i-ASO yahoxisa isimemo sepasipoti sikaComunidad Valenciana eTour de France, kodwa ngokwemithetho emisha ye-UCI ye-ProTour, uma icala lelayisensi yokushayela lase-Astana-Würth seliqinisekisiwe ngoJuni 22, i-The convoy izovikelwa ekukhishweni ngaphandle.
Kulula ukukhohlwa ukuthi konke lokhu kwenzeka ecaleni lika-Armstrong vs L'Equipe: Uyakhumbula lapho abacwaningi baseFrance bebuyela emuva ku-Tour de France ka-1999 futhi bahlola amasampula e-EPO? Ingabe ikhomishini kaVrijman ye-UCI kuthiwa yamkhulula u-Armstrong? Uma ubheka emuva, lokhu kuyahlekisa ngempela ngoba kwakuyizindaba eziqhubekayo zokusebenzisa izidakamizwa, isambulo sikaManzano, u-Armstrong noMichel Ferrari, u-Armstrong esongela uGreg Lemond, u-Armstrong ebiza uDick Pound Ukuhoxa ku-WADA, i-WADA “yagxeka” umbiko we-UCI ngoVrijman…bese kuba yi-Operación Puerto.
Uma amaFulentshi efuna u-Armstrong athathe umhlalaphansi, ekugcineni angathembela ku-French Tour evulekile nehlanzekile, khona-ke ngesonto elingaphambi kwe-Tour de France, afakazele ukuthi kufanele abhekane nokungaphezu nje komTexas. I-El Pais ikhiphe ulwazi oluningiliziwe mayelana naleli cala, oluhlanganisa abagibeli bamabhayisikili abangu-58 kanye nabantu abangu-15 eqenjini lamanje lamahhala le-Liberty Seguros.
"Lolu hlu luvela embikweni osemthethweni we-Spanish National Guard mayelana nophenyo lwe-doping, futhi luqukethe amagama amaningi amakhulu, futhi i-Tour de France cishe izophikiswana nezintandokazi ezahlukene kakhulu."
I-Astana-Würth (Astana-Würth) ingahlanganyela emncintiswaneni: I-ASO iphoqelekile ukucela usizo kwi-CAS ngezandla zombili, ishiya i-Astana-Würth (Astana-Würth) ekhaya, kodwa iqembu ngesibindi laya eSt. Lasbourg lahlanganyela ekuhambeni okukhulu. I-CAS yathi amaqembu kufanele avunyelwe ukuhlanganyela emncintiswaneni.
"Ngo-9:34 ekuseni ngoLwesihlanu ekuseni, i-T-Mobile yamemezela ukuthi uJan Ullrich, u-Oscar Sevilla noRudy Pevenage bamisiwe ngenxa yesigameko sasePuerto Rico. Laba abathathu babesesigabeni sokusetshenziswa kwezidakamizwa njengekhasimende likaDkt. Eufemiano Fuentes. Akekho kubo ozohlanganyela kuTour de France. Match."
"Ngemuva kokumenyezelwa kwezindaba, laba bantu abathathu bahlala ebhasini leqembu baya engqungqutheleni yabezindaba ebizwa ngokuthi "umhlangano". Batshelwa indlela eya phambili."
Ngesikhathi esifanayo, uJohan Bruyneel uthe: “Angicabangi ukuthi singayiqala iTour de France ngalolo hlobo lokusola nokungaqiniseki. Lokhu akukuhle kubagibeli. Sekuvele kukhona okwanele eduze kweDoubt. Akekho, abashayeli, abezindaba noma abezindaba abangeke. Abalandeli bazokwazi ukugxila emjahweni. Angicabangi ukuthi lokhu kuyadingeka kwiTour de France. Ngithemba ukuthi kungaxazululwa yiwo wonke umuntu esikhathini esizayo esiseduze.
Ngendlela ejwayelekile yokugibela, umgibeli nethimba bazama ukuba abalungile kuze kube umzuzu wokugcina.
“UMart Smeets, umsakazi wezemidlalo weDutch TV, usanda kubika ukuthi iqembu le-Astana-Würth selishiyile iTour de France.”
I-Active Bay, inkampani yokuphatha yeqembu le-Astana-Würth, iqinisekisile ukuthi izohoxa kulo mqhudelwano. "Ngenxa yokuqukethwe kwefayela elithunyelwe eziphathimandleni zaseSpain, i-Active Bay inqume ukuhoxa kwi-Tour de France ngokuhambisana "neKhodi Yokuziphatha" esayinwe phakathi kweqembu le-UCI ProTour (elivimbela abagibeli ukuthi bahlanganyele emjahweni lapho belawulwa yi-doping). Labo bashayeli."
I-News Flash: Abashayeli abaningi baqokwa yi-UCI, uLeBron: “Uhambo oluvulekile lomshayeli ohlanzekile”, Ithimba le-CSC: Ukungazi noma ukukhohlisa? , uMcQuade: Kuyadabukisa hhayi ukushaqeka
Lapho i-UCI ikhipha isitatimende, yayizobala abashayeli abayisishiyagalolunye ohlwini lokuqala uhambo okufanele bakhishwe emjahweni: "(Ukubamba iqhaza kwalaba bashayeli) akusho ukuthi ukwephulwa kwemithetho yokulwa nokusetshenziswa kwezidakamizwa sekutholakale. Kodwa-ke, phawula Izimpawu ezifikile zibonisa ukuthi umbiko ube mkhulu ngokwanele."
Umqondisi Wezokuvakasha uJean-Marie Leblanc: “Sizocela amaqembu afanele ukuthi asebenzise umqulu wokuziphatha abawusayinile futhi axoshe abashayeli abasolwayo. Uma kungenjalo, sizozenzela thina.”
"Ngithemba ukuthi sonke singazizwa sikhululekile kusukela ngoMgqibelo. Lena yiqembu lama-mafia elihlelekile elisakaza izidakamizwa. Ngithemba ukuthi singahlanza yonke into manje; konke ukukopela kufanele kukhishwe. Mhlawumbe, sizoba nomncintiswano ovulekile, ohlanzekile futhi ococekile. Abagibeli; vakashela izindawo ezinezimiso zokuziphatha, ezemidlalo nezokuzijabulisa."
U-Ivan Basso (u-Ivan Basso): “Umbono wami uwukuthi ngisebenza kanzima kulo mjaho we-Tour de France, ngicabanga ngalo mjaho kuphela. Umsebenzi wami ukugibela ibhayisikili ngokushesha. Ngemuva komjaho we-Giro, amandla ami angu-100% ngizowanikela ku-Tour de France. Ngifunda futhi ngibhala izinto kuphela… angazi okwengeziwe.”
USihlalo we-UCI uPat McQuaid: “Kunzima ukugibela ibhayisikili, kodwa kufanele ngiqale ohlangothini oluhle. Lokhu kufanele kuthumele umlayezo kubo bonke abanye abagibeli lapho, ukuthi kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ucabanga ukuthi uhlakaniphe kangakanani ekugcineni uzobanjwa.”
I-News Flash: Abashayeli abaningi bamisiwe: UBelso uphenywe, uBasso noMansbo bahoxile emjahweni, owayengumqeqeshi ka-Ulrich ubize lokhu ngokuthi “inhlekelele”
UBernard Hinault, isikhulu sezokuxhumana komphakathi se-ASO, utshele i-RTL Radio ukuthi unethemba lokuthi abagibeli abangu-15-20 bazoxoshwa ngaphambi kokuphela kosuku. I-UCI izobe isidinga ukuthi iNational Cycling Federation ithathe izinyathelo zokujezisa abagibeli abaqokwe kunethiwekhi yaseSpain.
Okhulumela iqembu uPatrick Lefevere uthe abashayeli abasusiwe ngeke bashintshwe. "Sinqume ngazwi linye ukuthumela bonke abashayeli abasohlwini emakhaya esikhundleni sokubashintsha."
I-News Flash: Ithimba le-CSC libhekene nokunakwa kwabezindaba. UMacebo useqede umsebenzi wakhe. Iyini imali entsha yokusebenzisa izidakamizwa ku-CSC? UBruyneel uqaphe indlela u-Ullrich asabela ngayo ekumisweni kwakhe
I-CSC kanye nomphathi uBjarne Riis bahlala beqinile kwaze kwaba yilapho iqembu lihlangana nabezindaba ntambama lapho ekugcineni enqotshwa yingcindezi futhi wahoxa ohambweni luka-Ivan Basso.
“Ngaphambi kuka-2pm ngoLwesihlanu, umphathi weqembu le-CSC uBjarne Riis kanye nomkhulumeli uBrian Nygaard bangena egumbini labezindaba leStrasbourg Music Museum kanye ne-Conference Hall, benza isitatimende futhi baphendula imibuzo. Kodwa ngokushesha igumbi laba yindawo yesibhakela, njengoba izintatheli nabathwebuli bezithombe abangu-200 befuna ukuthatha isinyathelo, isixuku sathuthela engqungqutheleni enkulu yabezindaba eSchweitzer Auditorium.
UReese waqala ukuthi: “Mhlawumbe iningi lenu selikuzwile. Namuhla ekuseni sibe nomhlangano nawo wonke amaqembu. Kulowo mhlangano, senze isinqumo - mina ngenze isinqumo - u-Ivan ngeke ahlanganyele ohambweni. Umdlalo.”
"Uma ngivumela u-Ivan ukuthi ahlanganyele ohambweni, ngingabona wonke umuntu lapha - futhi baningi laphaya - ngeke ahlanganyele emncintiswaneni ngoba uzozingelwa imini nobusuku. Lokhu akukuhle ku-Ivan., kuhle eqenjini. Akukuhle, futhi akukuhle kwezemidlalo."
I-Cyclingnews iqale ukusakaza bukhoma i-Tour de France ka-2006 ngoJulayi 1, futhi ukuphawula kwayo okucashile kuthi: “Bafundi abathandekayo, siyakwamukela kwi-Tour de France entsha. Lena inguqulo efingqiwe ye-Tour de France endala, kodwa Ubuso busha, isisindo samandla sinciphile, futhi akukubangeli isicanucanu. Izolo, ngemuva kokuba i-Puerto Rican Opera (OperaciónPuerto) isuse abangu-13 ohlwini lokuqala lohambo, sizobona ukuthi akekho uJan U Jan Ullrich, u-Ivan Basso, u-Alexandre Vinokourov noma uFrancisco Mansbo ohambweni. Yiba nesimo sengqondo esihle bese uthi iPuerto Rico I-Opera House iyindawo yokuzijabulisa yangempela yokugibela ibhayisikili, futhi sekuyisikhathi eside.” kubhala uJeff Jones.
Ekupheleni kwe-Tour de France, cishe abagibeli abangu-58 bakhethwa, yize abanye babo - okuhlanganisa no-Alberto Contador - bezokhishwa kamuva. Abanye abakaze baqinisekiswe ngokusemthethweni.
Ngemva kokuba izindaba eziningi zinyamalale ngokushesha, isiphithiphithi sasePuerto Rico Opera House saba umjaho webanga elide kunokuba kube ukushesha. Iziphathimandla ezilwa nokusetshenziswa kwezidakamizwa azinamandla amakhulu okujezisa abashayeli, ngoba izinkantolo zaseSpain ziyayivimbela inhlangano ukuthi ithathe noma yisiphi isinyathelo ngokumelene nabadlali kuze kube yilapho izinqubo zabo zomthetho seziphelile.
Phakathi kwazo zonke izingxoxo zokusebenzisa izidakamizwa, i-Cyclingnews isakwazile ukuthola izindaba mayelana ne-Tour de France ezayo. Okungenani kunezindaba zokuthi uFuentes usebenzisa igama lenja egibele njengephasiwedi, okungenani kukhona into ehlekisayo. Embikweni obukhoma wohambo, uJones wazama ukugcina intshiseko yabalandeli ngokwenza ihlaya, kodwa njengoba isikhathi sihamba, okuqukethwe kombiko kwashintshela ngokuphelele ohambweni.
Phela, lena yi-Tour de France yokuqala kaLance Armstrong ngemuva kokuthatha umhlalaphansi, futhi i-Tour de France yazivuselela ngemuva kweminyaka engu-7 yokubusa kwe-Texan.
Umdlali weMaillot ushintshe izandla izikhathi eziyishumi—ngaphambi kokuba uFloyd Landis ahole ngosuku lokuqala lwesigaba 11, uThor Hushovd, uGeorge Hincapie, uTom Boonen, uSerhiy Honchar, uCyril Dessel no-Oscar Pereiro baphenduka baphuzi. Lo mdlali waseSpain waya eMontélimar ngosuku olushisayo ukuze athole ithuba lokudlala, wanqoba isigamu sehora, wabe esebuyela e-Alpe d'Huez, wahlulwa eLa Toussuire, wabe esehamba ibanga elingamakhilomitha angu-130 esigabeni se-17. Ekugcineni wawina iTour de France.
Yiqiniso, ukusabela kwakhe okuhle ku-testosterone kwamenyezelwa ngokushesha ngemva kwalokho, futhi ngemva kwesikhathi eside sokusebenza kanzima, uLandis wagcina ephucwe isihloko sakhe, kwalandela umjikelezo wezindaba ezijabulisayo zokusebenzisa izidakamizwa.
Abalandeli kufanele bazi ukuthi kwenzekeni, kusho uJones. Kwaqala ngoFestina kwaqhubeka iminyaka eyisishiyagalombili, kwaze kwaba yiPuerto Rico Opera House nangale kwalokho, futhi kwasakazwa kabanzi ku-Cyclingnews.
"Ukusebenzisa izidakamizwa kuyisihloko, ikakhulukazi ngesikhathi sika-Armstrong. Kodwa ngaphambi kwe-Puerto Rico Opera House, ungase ucabange ukuthi icala ngalinye laliyinto eyodwa, kodwa kunengqondo. Kodwa ePuerto Rico, kufakazela lokho kusebenzisa izidakamizwa cishe yonke indawo."
"Njengomlandeli, kunzima ukuqonda ukuthi wonke umuntu usebenzisa izidakamizwa. Ngacabanga, 'Cha - hhayi u-Ulrich, muhle kakhulu' - kodwa kuyinto eqhubekayo. Wazi kanjani ngalo mdlalo?
"Ngaleso sikhathi sasilila kancane lo mdlalo. Saphikwa, sathukuthela futhi ekugcineni samukelwa. Yiqiniso, ezemidlalo nobuntu akuhlukaniswanga - bangabantu abanamandla angaphezu kwawemvelo emabhayisikilini, kodwa basengabantu nje. Ukuphela."
"Lokhu kushintshe indlela engibuka ngayo lo mdlalo - ngiyawuthanda lo mbukiso, kodwa lokho akusikho okwedlule."
Ekupheleni kuka-2006, uJones uzoshiya i-Cyclingnews ukuze akhe iwebhusayithi enesihloko sebhayisikili ebizwa ngokuthi i-BikeRadar. Ngonyaka olandelayo, uGerard Knapp uzothengisa iwebhusayithi ku-Future, kanti uDaniel Benson (Daniel Benson) Benson) uzosebenza njengomphathi jikelele.
Naphezu kokudumala kwabalandeli, le ndawo iyaqhubeka nokukhula, futhi iminyaka emnyama esele ezingobo zomlando isekhona ngesimo "samabhasi azenzakalelayo".
Eminyakeni eyalandela u-2006, inkantolo yaseSpain yavula futhi yavala icala le-Operación Puerto. Yabe isilivula futhi ilicima futhi, bese ilivula futhi ilicima, kuze kube yilapho icala liqala ngo-2013.
Ngaleso sikhathi, lokhu kwakungeyona into efike ekugcineni, kodwa kuyinto engenamsebenzi. Ngawo lowo nyaka, u-Armstrong, owayevinjelwe impilo yakhe yonke, wavuma ukuthi wayesebenzise izidakamizwa phakathi nomsebenzi wakhe wonke. Umbhalo wesinqumo esinengqondo se-ADAADA wase-United States wawuchaze konke lokhu ngokuningiliziwe ngaphambilini.
UFuentes wagwetshwa unyaka owodwa wokuvivinywa kodwa wakhululwa ngebheyili, futhi isijeziso sakhe sachithwa eminyakeni emithathu kamuva. Inkinga enkulu yezomthetho ukuthi izikhuthazi kwakungelona icala eSpain ngo-2006, ngakho iziphathimandla zamlandela uFuentes ngaphansi koMthetho Wezempilo Yomphakathi.
Leli cala linikeza ubufakazi obuphathekayo bokusetshenziswa kwesikhuthazi ngaleso sikhathi: I-EPO egazini ikhombisa ukuthi umshayeli wasebenzisa lesi sidakamizwa ngesikhathi sokuphumula ukuze aqinise amangqamuzana abomvu egazi, wabe esegcina igazi ukuze liphinde lifakwe ngaphambi komncintiswano.
Amagama namaphasiwedi mbumbulu aguqule iPuerto Rico yaba yinoveli yesitolo semali: UBasso: “NginguBillio”, uScarborough: “NginguZapatero”, uFuentes: “Ngingubugebengu obudumile bebhayisikili”. UJorg Jaksche wagcina ephule uMehta ngokutshela wonke umuntu. Kusukela ku-“I Just Want to Dope” ka-Ivan Basso kuya kunoveli edumile kaTyler Hamilton ethi “The Secret Race”, i-Opera House yasePuerto Rico (Operción Puerto) yanikeza lokhu kwaze kwaba ngu-2006 Esinye isibonelo sokugibela ibhayisikili ngonyaka.
Iphinde iveze ukushiyeka emithethweni yokulwa nokusetshenziswa kwezidakamizwa futhi isiza ekwakheni imithetho yokungalandeli imithetho ngokusekelwe ebufakazini obungebona ukuhlaziywa nokuhlolwa. Ecashe ngemuva kodonga lokudideka kwezomthetho kanye nekhalenda eliyinkimbinkimbi, eminyakeni emibili kamuva, u-Alejandro Valverde ekugcineni waxhunyaniswa ngokusobala noFuentes.
U-Ettore Torri, umshushisi ophikisana nokusetshenziswa kwezidakamizwa e-CONI yase-Italy, wasebenzisa amadokhumenti obuqili futhi okusolwa ukuthi aqamba amanga ukuze athole ubufakazi. Kwakusolwa ukuthi uValverde wayenegazi ngesikhathi samaholide kaKhisimusi. Ngemuva kwalokho, uValverde Wade (Valverde) wagcina ephoqelekile ukungena e-Italy ku-Tour de France ka-2008, abahloli bezidakamizwa bangathola amasampula futhi bafakazele okuqukethwe kukaValverde ngokufanisa i-DNA. Ekugcineni wamiswa ngo-2010.
“Ngithe kwakungewona umdlalo, kwakuwubuqhawe bekilabhu. Ungicele ukuthi ngichaze ukuthi ngisho ukuthini. Ngakho ngathi, ‘Yebo, lokho kwakuwubuqhawe bekilabhu. Umpetha womdlalo kwakuyiklayenti likaFuentes uJan Ur Richie. Indawo yesibili kaJan Ur Richie yikhasimende likaFuentes uKoldo Gil, indawo yesithathu yimi, indawo yesine yiVientos, enye yikhasimende likaFuentes, kanti indawo yesithupha yiFränk Schleck’. Wonke umuntu enkantolo, ngisho nejaji, uyahleka. Lokhu kuyahlekisa.
Ngemva kokuvalwa kwecala, inkantolo yaseSpain yaqhubeka nokuhlehlisa noma yisiphi isenzo segunya elilwa nokusetshenziswa kwezidakamizwa. Ijaji layala ukuba ubufakazi bushabalaliswe, futhi ngesikhathi esifanayo i-WADA ne-UCI baphoqeleka ukuba badlulise icala, kwaze kwaba yilapho ukulibaziseka kokugcina—ubufakazi kuleli cala sebudlule isikhathi eside umkhawulo wesikhathi oshiwo yimithetho ye-WADA.
Lapho ubufakazi budluliselwa emagunyeni alwa nokusetshenziswa kwezidakamizwa ngoJulayi 2016, amaqiniso ayengaphezu kweminyaka eyishumi ubudala. Umcwaningi waseJalimane wenza ukuhlolwa kwe-DNA ezikhwameni zegazi ezingu-116 futhi wathola izigxivizo zeminwe ezingu-27 ezihlukile, kodwa wakwazi ukuxhumana kuphela ngokuzethemba nabadlali abangu-7 - abane abasebenzayo kanye nabathathu asebethathe umhlalaphansi - kodwa abakahlanganyeli kulo mdlalo okwamanje.
Nakuba kukhona izinsolo zokuthi abadlali bebhola likanobhutshuzwayo, ithenisi, kanye nabadlali bokugijima bahilelekile eringini likaFuentes lokusebenzisa izidakamizwa, amabhayisikili athinteke kakhulu kwabezindaba, futhi-ke naku-Cyclingnews.
Leli cala lashintsha indlela abalandeli abacabanga ngayo ngalo mdlalo, futhi manje njengoba u-Armstrong esevumile futhi ububanzi obuphelele bokusebenzisa izidakamizwa ngawo-1990 nawo-2000 sebucacile, kuyangabazeka.
I-inthanethi ikhuphuke isuka kubasebenzisi abayizigidi ezingu-40 yaya kubasebenzisi abayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-4.5 emlandweni we-Cyclingnews, iheha abalandeli abasha abalandela izinkanyezi zayo ezikhulayo futhi banethemba lokuthi lo mdlalo usezingeni eliphezulu. Njengoba umsebenzi we-Alderlass ubonisile, ukusungulwa kwe-WADA, umsebenzi onzima wabaphenyi, kanye nokuzimela okwandayo kwezinhlangano ezilwa nokusetshenziswa kwezidakamizwa kusaqeda amasela.
Kusukela ekuguqulweni kwaba yiposi elilodwa lezindaba ngo-2009, i-Cyclingnews ayisadingi ukusebenzisa "izaziso zezindaba", ithatha indawo ye-Dreamweaver ne-FTP ngezinguqulo eziningi zezinhlelo zokuphatha okuqukethwe kanye nomklamo wewebhusayithi. Sisasebenza ku-24-7-365 ukuletha izindaba zakamuva. Kutholakale kalula.
