O’Grady admits doping
Australian Cyclist Stuart O’Grady has admitted doping in the lead-up to the 1998 Tour de France.
O’Grady, who announced his retirement on Wednesday following the completion of his 17th Tour, in which he rode in the Australian Orica GreenEdge team, was set to be named in a French parliamentary inquiry into doping in cycling.
"I did it for two weeks before the Tour de France. I used extremely cautious amounts because I'd heard a lot of horror stories and did the absolute minimum of what I hoped would get me through,” said O’Grady,.
The top three riders in the ’98 Tour – Jan Ullrich, Marco Pantini and Bobby Julich – have all been named in French daily paper Le Monde as testing positive to EPO at the time, as has green jersey winner Erik Zabel.
