The great Cyclist Jan Ulrich retires from Cycling

[Phil C]

He was the Tour de France winner before Lance started winning his Tour De France races and was Lance's main competitor. He didn't get to compete last year because of the doping scandle in Spain (in which it later came out that he was completely innocent). He would have been one of the favorites along with Basco who was also innocent. A mess up by the doping testers again. Good luck in retirement Jan! You deserved better.
