Australian rider Rory Sutherland has been banned for 15 months after testing positive for clomiphene during the Deutschland Tour (Tour of Germany) this year. The sanction was announced on Thursday by the disciplinary commission of the Belgian cycling federation, which had jurisdiction in the matter as Sutherland possesses a Belgian licence. The ban, which also carries an additional 9 month provisional suspension, will run until December 15, 2006.
Didn't know the dope issue. Wondering if he'll return to Europe, still. He really tears up the NRC and his ToC performance was really good, especially without what appeared to be significant help in the mountains.
