After seven years Operation Puerto comes to a conclusion - but at what cost?

Danish rider Michael Rasmussen admitted Thursday that he took performance-enhancing drugs for more than a decade, the latest cyclist to acknowledge doping since Lance Armstrong's confession this month.

Alberto Contador, a two-time winner of the Tour de France who was stripped of a third title for using a banned substance, says cycling needs to take something positive from the Lance Armstrong scandal.

Alberto Contador has asked Tour de France organizer A.S.O. if his Saxo-Tinkoff team will be invited to compete in the 2013 Tour de France.

Tyler Hamilton and ghost writer Daniel Coyle have won the prestigious William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award for "The Secret Race." Along with the prize Hamilton and Coyle were handed £24,000.

Team Saxo Bank-Tinkoff Bank owner Bjarne Riis is finding himself in an increasingly tight spot as pressure for him to comment on the accusations made by Tyler Hamilton rises further in his home country of Denmark.

American National Champion Timmy Duggan and Russian Evgeny Petrov have agreed to deals of a respectively one year and two year duration with the Denmark-based team. Japanese Takashi Miyazawa has extended his existing contract for another year.

How soon before checkmate?

Most times a sponsor bails when scandal hits. Instead Saxo Bank did something else.

Alberto Contador's results are tossed out and once again cycling history needs to be rewritten.
