Bergman accepts provisional suspension for EPO positive

Former Jelly Belly rider Adam Bergman has accepted a provisional suspension from cycling pending review of a positive for EPO on April 6 of this year.

Bergman, 23, accepted and began serving the provisional suspension on July 27, 2004. By accepting the provisional suspension, Bergman agreed not to compete in any competitions under the jurisdiction of UCI, USA Cycling or the United States Olympic Committee. According to the agreement, Bergman is not admitting guilt and will receive credit for the period of the time he has served the provisional suspension should a doping violation be determined at a later arbitration hearing.
