The year 2006 was a controversial year for Floyd Landis. After his impressive performance in the 2006 Tour de France, it was found out that the urine sample he submitted had exceptionally high levels of testosterone hormones in the epitestosterone (T/E ratio). Initially, he denied these allegations and he provided back up samples which also proved to be positive. This led to his dismissal from his current team, Phonak Hearing Systems, and suspension from professional cycling. He returned two years later with OUCH Pro Cycling Team.

Floyd Landis was born on October 14, 1975 in Farmersville, Pennsylvania, U.S.
