    Bradley McGee says he didn't dope!

    Logic gap. You are assuming that he was aware of whatever it is you think he coyld tell. If, for instance, Contador's doping was behind closed doors and/or in Spain, why is it certain that Brad would hear of it? If Bjarne hired uim partly for his clean reputation, he would of course ensure...

    Massage and cycling

    You would be better off to join with another new masseur and offer a cheaper 20min leg massage. If there were two of you youd get more interest due to no waiting. Also, think of this mot as a money maker but as a way to go public and find more regular clients during the week. My wife has...

    One strike

    Yep thats the real problem. Nobody ever seems to get the proper penalty for a second offense, etc. Once there is scope for minor doubt. Twice, there is none.

    One strike

    Its a great way for a Lance type personality to eliminate dangerous opponents. Imagine if some with a history of not quite winning, like Poulidor, could arrange for a dodgy bidon to go to his opponent - or spike a drink at a bar,etc,etc. They are out with no possibility to ever come back...

    Please delete my Account - No

    Just wanted to say - great post. Unfortunately, the only flaw in it was that if your name is posted there you are locked out of your account. all the posts are still available for everyone but you. If you want to instantly get all your posts deleted, the quickest way is to write a few...

    Yellow bracelets. Who still wears them, and is there an alternative?

    I have had one for a couple of years :D

    This Forum Blows

    Susan, You are probably not aware but when regular members view their post list they don't get the checkboxes. They cannot wholesale delete posts like mods can. I'd think it a reasonable request from someone with over 200 posts that a mod takes a minute to do it for them?

    This Forum Blows

    There are at least 15 members here who have blatantly run sockpuppets for extended periods and they are generally allowed to stay until the calls in the forum force the mods to act. A former moderator who at his peak was effectively carrying the place given the revulsion the other mods had...

    Name one great and or exciting thing about this season so far

    Its the calm way he dealt with the chain problems that got me. A lot of people would be throwing bikes over fences but he just got his hands dirty and sorted it out. Strong and with a good head on him

    Tour of California 2012

    Then that is truly tragic. Sorry but it is one thing to say, "This event is growing rapidly and will eventually be the 2nd biggest Tour race in the calendar" it a completely pathetic delusion to say, "This race IS the 2nd most important tour race on the calendar". For many of us, ToC is a...

    Look at me, I am a Vegan! Can I persuade you to become one too?

    2 things: 1) Everyone does not say that. 2) Posting photos such as this one merely prove what many have already realised - you are a vain, deluded and totally self-absorbed loser. I don't have a dog in that race - all I am saying is that you went on a rabid attack of someone whose...
