But I don't know who is getting their oil changed in Madrid this week
(or Vienna).
Or anywhere else for that matter.
I'll go out on a limb and predict that the next great medical bust comes from Greece. Why? It's one of the least suspected locations for medical enhancement. It's not a cycling nation, it has no great riders, the scene is more or less non-existent and the riders would feel safer going there because it's not a country under scrutiny by the UCI or WADA. The rates should be cheaper than most other EU countries also.

Ever heard of Kostas Kenteris and Katerina Thanou?
jyh.
Nope.
The two biggest Greek athletes (track & field) of the last 50 years came out of nowhere to take the gold in the 200m dash (him) and the silver in the 100m dash (her) in the 2000 Sidney Olympics. Highly suspected by many other athletes due to "out of nowhere" factor, non-athletic look, association with sulfurous trainer, and mystery surrounding training. In 2004, got kicked out of Athens games for missing yet another surprise test (and being suspected of making up a strange motorbike accident story to cover it).
