Weekend Preview - UPDATE

I knew it was too good to be true...

The UCI has just announced that Euskaltel's Mikel Astarloza tested positive on June 26 for recombinant EPO. He is of course being considered innocent until proven guilty, but he certainly won't be participating in tomorrow's Clasica San Sebastian.

Otherwise, it casts a shadow on what had been--until this point--a clean Tour de France. Astarloza was the winner of Stage 16.
