Earlier today the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) announced it has decided to uphold Team Katusha's appeal of the International Cycling Union's (UCI) decision not to issue a WorldTour license to the Russian team.

A "monumental cloud" will hang over Spanish sport until all the athletes involved in the Operation Puerto case are identified, according to the head of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).

Two former professional cyclists earlier today turned down requests to have their DNA analyzed to see if any of the blood bags seized by Spanish police as evidence in the Operation Puerto doping trial could be linked to them.

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.

The International Cycling Union (UCI) did all it could to stall its doping investigation into Lance Armstrong, U.S. Anti-Doping Agency chief executive Travis Tygart said Wednesday.

Luxembourg's anti-doping authorities suspended cyclist Frank Schleck until July 14 after he tested positive for a banned substance during last year's Tour de France.

The World Anti-Doping Agency called the UCI "deceitful" Tuesday for shutting down its independent doping panel and said it won't participate in an amnesty commission set up by the cycling governing body.

The International Cycling Union (UCI) disbanded what is claimed was an independent commission put together to review any involvement the cycling governing body had in the Lance Armstrong scandal, saying it will go ahead with a "truth and reconciliation commission" instead.

The only way to move forward is to acknowledge the past.

The first public hearing into the Lance Armstrong doping scandal descended into sharp exchanges in London on Friday over the lack of disclosure of documents by the sport's governing body.
