 Stefan Schumacher Loses Appeal of Doping Ban By AP Jan 25, 2010 - 1:58:22 PM
German cyclist Stefan Schumacher has lost his appeal of a two-year global ban for doping at the Tour de France. The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled on Monday that the International Cycling Union was right to ban the 28-year-old German. He can race again after Aug. 27, 2010. Schumacher won both individual time trials at the 2008 Tour, but was caught two months later when the French anti-doping agency developed a test for CERA, the latest version of blood-boosting hormone EPO. His blood samples taken before and during the race contained the banned drug.
