I don't see how Legion's pulling out of the races does anything. Seems like the time to get out was before the guy got suspended.

Apparently this was old news that somehow didn't make it's way public. To make matters worse there are two guys (!) with essentially the same name with similar rap sheets.
That USAC knew about this and did nothing is what I think they are protesting; and justly.

Eric Adams pledges to commute by bike to City Hall.
""If elected, you're going to see me on my bike all the time riding to and from City Hall in a real way," Adams told reporters on Tuesday after receiving an endorsement from StreetsPAC, a political action group that advocates for a safer redesign of city streets.
"I think if people start seeing their mayor on a bike, they'd be more encouraged to know that the streets are safe to ride their bikes," he later added.
Adams rode to the endorsement event on 14th Street on a CitiBike, coming from an earlier event on 26th Street."

Lmao this is crazy
I don’t really understand the vaccination fear in pro cycling. I understand not wanting to get vaccinated the night before a big race. Those side effects are real. But the winningest racer of the year was fully vaccinated suuuuper early and it doesn’t seem to be slowing him down much.

UAE's Gianetti: As a rider he nearly died in 1998 when he experimented with PFC.
As a manager:
2007: Mayo: EPO
2008: Ricco and Piepoli: Cera
2009: Fernandez de la Puebla: EPO
2010: Rest year
2011: Cobo (abnormal bio passport)

I had forgotten about Gianetti's collapse and near death experience. I went to Dopeology.org and tried to track it down.

It's pretty awful.
"One of the alleged banned substances was PFC or perfluorocarbon. Perfluorocarbon (PFC) emulsions are infusion gas-transporting media and are usually called the artificial blood. It can help providing oxygene to tissues under surgery. Pulmonary side effects, however were observed in the first American patient receiving it. It sems that complement activation is the problem.
"Rather logical it has been tried to cyclists who need oxygen in their muscles. Continuous use of PFC is of-course different and with other side effects like embolisms (blood clots). PFC can probably be detected by mass spectrometry, if the method is sensitive enough.
"Mauro Gianetti (La Francaise des Jeux) who had to give up the Tour of the Romandie earlier this year because of what was then identified as a gastro entritis collapsed actually because he was alleged to have taken a shot of Perfluorcarbon (PFC). Dr. Gerald Gr�mion works at the University hospital of Lusanne, Switzerland, where Gianetti had spent 2 weeks (several days in intensive care).

I find it pretty remarkable that KCC blundered into possibly the best custom kit manufacturer we out there. A decade ago there were twenty choices (I still have the spreadsheet) and we stuck with CS because the alternatives weren’t better and out of team/brand loyalty. The quality of the kit (at the time) was not outstanding.
I still remember opening the boxes and boxes of custom samples from Craft and being absolutely appalled at how bad they were even five or six years ago.
I always felt like the only folks who could give CS a run for their money would be Rapha.

Re: Rapha - Judging from friends in the custom and semi custom fashion industry, seems like supply chain issues are hitting them hard. Like they are being quoted not double, not quadruple, but 10x the cost for materials and shipping. At one point one of them seriously considered just flying a team to their factories in China and packing checked luggage full of inventory because the container costs would have been just as expensive and would take longer.
It's rough out there yo.
