Police raid RadioShack cars on rest day - Whether it had something to do with Yaroslav Popovych's top billing in the UCI doping index leaked by l'Equipe - was there a breakaway in which the 31-year-old Ukrainian was not involved? - we may never know, but the Italian authorities took it upon themselves to do a quick spot check of the American team's vehicles. Nothing was found, but directeur sportif Johan Bruyneel mysteriously vanished the same day, not to be seen again. Had the police been better informed, they would have seen that it was the RadioShack balding veterans over the Atlantic in the Tour of California who were arousing more suspicion than this bunch of Giro underachievers.
