    Ben O'Connor: Baby face becomes conqueror

    https://amp.nine.com.au/article/9f3e93fc-c4b8-49d3-a3f7-3b4cdef62fdd I believe workers should indeed stand up for their rights. But what razzed me were his imperious comments about “I’d like to see others ride this” and then see what they say. Then a number of commentators amplified the comment...

    General Doping Thread.

    I wish there was a middle path that UCI & anti-doping organizations could offer. For instance, tell her she can clear her name and keep riding, but to do so she must agree to take a lie-detector test and get her blood tested every week by a certified lab, for like a year.

    General Doping Thread.

    If by “went through” you mean she and her husband spending their life savings to hire attorneys who could produce enough doubt in a 600/page filing to get the violations dismissed, that was her choice.

    Good, after those comments on the Umbrail stage I hoped he would fade mightily.

    Three weeks of racing and the 2-5 riders having rarely been out of sight of one another (discounting the TT’s)

    I don’t know why Martinez wouldn’t help pull in this situation -unless he doesn’t have much left

    His group is indeed coming back. Probably smart riding by him to not risk blowing up.

    Every time in these packed summit sections with idiots running alongside, it’s hard not to imagine that one of these races a fan will trip and fall in front of a rider and take him down. Hopefully they have a special section in the criminal code to cover that.
