Beltran and Kohl get two-year bans

News that Lance's old team mate Manuel Beltran has been banned from cycling in France for two years, following his positive EPO test in this year's Tour is no surprise.

Dodgy Austrian climbing sensation Bernhard Kohl also getting banned is more interesting: for refusing to shop his suppliers in last year's Tour de France, apparently, despite claiming only yesterday he would spill the beans in return for a shorter ban. You might be forgiven for thinking someone with more to lose had made him a better offer; we couldn't possibly comment...
