BBF works great 99% of the time...

But when you have to shoot looking back over your right shoulder, having focus on the shutter button is MUCH easier!

well, how can fail a TdF drug test (or pass with it covered up), and pass a IOC drug test that can also be taken at any time?

Like you say, I hope there is a mass clear out right to the very top levels because of all this.

Give me my 16lbs bike and 6 months and I'll be tearing up the pro cycling scene.

Lance seemed to pass with flying colors :lol:

But the more all of this comes out the better. You still have plenty of scared riders who have not come out.

Yeah if it really was like a team wide organized regime, then you know other teams had the exact same thing and nearly every rider participation was using some sort of enchacing drug.

There is a reason they aren't going to name any winners for those year TDF's if they remove the titles from Lance... there is no one else to give it to!

There is an other option, have an open league which allows anything. It will probably be the same guys there now but let them dope themselves to death if they so choose and cut out all this holier then thou, were so pure attitude.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.
I used to hate math but then I realised decimals have a point.

Give it to the guy that came in last as clearly he could not have been doping.

I read that Lance made a $100,000 "donation" to the cycling union, to help them set up use of a blood testing device in 2002... Worked well, right?

just happened to be the start of his "winning" time
