Bossoni banned for two years

Italian cyclist Paolo Bossoni on Wednesday received a two-year EPO ban.

Bossoni, a 'domestique' on Damiano Cunego and Marzio Bruseghin's Lampre team, tested positive for the blood-booster on June 29.

The news broke shortly after this year's Tour de France and he was suspended by Lampre.

Bossoni, 32, won a stage of the Tour of Spain in 2000 and came second in the Italian road race championship last year.
