Either Ricco and Piepoli are confused simpletons or there is some very bad reporting of their doping cases. First, Ricco is caught using CERA and swears upon the head of his mother that he was not doping. Piepoli apparently felt a rush of guilt and reportedly went to team management with the admission that he was using the same stuff that Ricco. That got both guys fired.
Skip forward to Laurel and Hardy's appearances before CONI the past few days. Ricco seemingly has the rush of guilt after Piepoli admitted to doping and admits to doping during the Tour, but not the Giro. More on that in a minute. That brings us to today's meeting with CONI by Piepoli and he claims complete innocence. Can these two numbskulls ever get there stories straight?
Who is buying Ricco's story of not doping during the Giro? Let's see if we can follow this logic. Ricco did not dope before or during the race that he was wanting to win. But, he did dope before/during the race that he was only wanting to win white jersey and did not decide to participate in until a week or two before the race.
His story is almost as bad as Basso's claim that he did not use any Puerto blood. That it was only to be used in case it was needed during the Tour. Why he suddenly felt the need to have a backup plan after crushing all the competition at the Giro was not explained. The difference between Basso and Ricco is that Basso was always a respectful rider, kept his mouth shut and rode his bike. Ricco, on the other hand, was entertaining with his outrageous quotes but once he became exposed there was nothing left but a lying, self-promoting punk.
