Tyler Hamilton suspended for 2 years.

For all things considered and pending a long shot with the Court of arbitration and Sport, Tyler Hamilton's cycling career is over. Today the US Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) gave Tyler the maximum sentence of a 2-year suspension with a 2 to 1 decision. Tyler put forth information about his defense and to me the details are quite convincing. Read for yourself and decide. With Tyler already being 34 years old, there isn't much of a future for him in cycling after a 2-year break. The news coincides with Lance Armstrong announcing his pending retirement and puts the future of US cycling in doubt, if for only the next 2 years
