Re: Re: Cool, I'll jut put it down under Easyjet, then. We've already got roads and accommodation. Roads, altitude, weather, DRUGS, accommodation, Easyjet. There we go.

I warn you that the integrity of the special list is at stake. If we start putting too much extraneous bumf on there, we might forget about why we're here (the drugs). Also, we really need to get ourselves into the Tenerife thread.

Re: Re: Sorry KB, I know where the thread is. Sorry if I'm bothering you but pointing me to the beginning of a 600 post thread (that I've already read) comes over a bit passive aggressive and doesn't really help our discussion. Basically, I do not accept what you're saying as self-evident...

Shall we take this to the Tenerife thread?

Re: Re: Aw sorry, KB, it doesn't have to be like that. I'm just a little wary of the sort of language that too often gets used to lend simple things an air of unimpeachable professionalism. I probably came across as being a bit cheeky and seem to have annoyed you. Could you please tell me...

Re: Re: Self flagellation not required, Wrinkly, don't be too hard on yourself.

Re: Re: Okay, cool... Roads, altitude, weather, drugs, accommodation. Although... Transport and logistics? Not sure what this means in real terms. Easyjet, Hertz and network coverage? If we can think of enough things to put on our list, maybe drugs can be buried in the middle somewhere...

Re: Re: Nice logic, but you surely have to concede that IF drugs constituted part of your training regime, it'd be preferable to train in a place beyond the reaches of any of those pesky maverick testers who may or may not still exist at WADA, the AFLD or CONI.

Roads, altitude, weather, drugs. Right?

Sorry, too late.

Surely all this Tenerife stuff has been discussed to death in the Tenerife thread? It's an excellent place to train because of perfect roads, altitude, good weather all year round and you can guzzle as many drugs as you want because testers rarely go there and if they do, it's very difficult to...

Re: Re: In my opinion, you're giving this idea a lot more credence than it deserves. As far as I can remember, this was originally proposed by Sky themselves (Brailsford, maybe?), I presume in an attempt to partially justify Froome's ludicrous journey from Hendy-pushing Giro zig-zagger to the...

Re: Re: Sorry to wade in from nowhere, but you surely can't be suggesting that riding on the front for Wiggins constitutes energy conservation. Can you?

Sorry if this has been discussed to death, but...Has there been much talk about about Froome's efforts on the Mavic bike yesterday? Watching him toiling up Ventoux was like a nostalgic flashback to the infamous 2009 Giro zig zag. (23.46)...

Um...
