Beware the Ides of July... the time of year when the doping controls eliminate 10% of the Tour de France riders before a pedal is pushed "in anger".

Yes, the Ides of July. Time for Andy Schleck to step up and earn the top spot on the podium - I'm tired of seeing that rat Contador win!

I'm ready for the Ides of July - when Spartacus raises his arms in victory and pulls on the yellow tunic.

Dopers be damned!
