Vladimir Nikolayevich Gusev (Russian: Владимир Николаевич Гусев, born 4 July 1982) is a Russian former professional road racing cyclist,[1] who rode professionally between 2004 and 2015 for the,,, and teams.
Career
At the 2006 Paris–Roubaix, Gusev finished fourth but was later one of three riders disqualified by the race jury for illegally riding through a closed level-crossing.
On 25 July 2008, Gusev was fired by his team for showing "abnormal" values during an internal doping check,[2] a decision the Court of Arbitration for Sport found to be unjust in a ruling the following June.[3]
Gusev joined in 2010 after not riding for a trade team following his dismissal from Astana.[4]
