51.5 will have banned from the Tour de France unless you can prove that it is your natural level in what the UCI calls a Biological Passport.

Interesting, good thing I don’t plan on entering the TDF.
My blood doc has run a few different tests to see what’s causing mine to run so high. I know cigar smoking does elevate it. but even on a 12 week break, it was still 50+. At least it’s not the worst type of polycythemia. That had me concerned until it was ruled out.
