I'll bite a bit on the Gee thing seeing as I'm Canadian. He was a team pursuiter on a weak nation. It makes it hard to get a sense of his actual talent. Would he have made the UK or Aussi squad? His road record when he was racing track was underwhelming thought he did finish 7th in the 2007...

https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2024/nov/04/exercise-in-a-pill-drug-as-good-as-10km-run GW501516 without the cancer. Is this what we've been seeing since Covid?

GCN stooge Jon Canning gaslighting the comments.

I think it's enlightening to quote Ross Tucker way back in 2010. "And this leaves me, anyway, with the thought, or hypothesis, that performance in the 2009 and 2010 Tours have been curtailed. The 6.3W/kg finishing climbs of the 90’s and 2000’s would have seen Contador and Schleck finishing...

I raced Conti 25 years ago. For racing I'd do one gel an hour and have about 15 grams of carbs in my bottle. So about 45 g an hour. I'd say I was among the higher end among my teammates. Back then the concern was too many carbs, especially in the bottle, would cause cramps. However, the notion...

5-8% in this study. By the way both Remco and Lotto have Youtube vids on heat training. I've done it and found no improvement, so take it with a grain of salt. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20724560/

That's actually not what he said. He said the French often throw aspersions at other riders, implying they dope, but when the French win, all is forgotten. He's speaking about French hypocrisy and rather than saying the French are doping he is implying that if the French are clean and beat other...

Race clean, b*tches!

On the pod the other day Friebe at least acknowledged social media was blowing up with doping talk. The reaction of supposed journalist Brian Nygaard tells you everything. He said he hadn't bothered to look at social media and when Freibe asked him if there was any talk in the press room at the...

So when he was previously fast, there was no celery around? These guys aren't the best logicians. Why not at least talk about the department store bikes, like everyone else is? Reminds me of Bugno. I sucked because of a wheat allergy. Once I got that sorted I was fast again. Nothing to do with...

It was me that mentioned kermesse riders which was actually a tongue in cheek quote from the Lantern Rouge pod, but he's not wrong. Those three guys that blew it apart at 150km are currently ranked 168, 685, and 815th. Their average salary is probably less than 90% of the riders they dropped...

Vermeersch's ride was definitely a red flag, for sure. In fact, the whole of Alpecin was a bit lol. As LR said, they took a bunch of random kermesse racers and made them into a Classics super team. Keilich, Reisebeek, Planckaert. Who are these guys?

"Movie Extras" Lol The irony of Wout's altitude training is he still got killed again by golf playing VdP.

I'm curious how much drug testing is happening in US masters races these days? I know there was a big splash in the media a few years back of fees going towards that, but since then I don't hear a lot despite a lot of anecdotal talk of US master racing being very dirty. As contrast a masters...

Well, there was this: https://www.cyclingnews.com/news/ucis-suspicious-list-leaked-from-2010-tour-de-france/ 6/10
