    The Sky-Con-O-Meter. Predictions on how much more ridiculous they can get

    The quote of this whole thread so far is "if you think Wiggins is doping then you really are thick or have some kind of autism" Pretty much sums up most of what I have read in here.

    The Sky-Con-O-Meter. Predictions on how much more ridiculous they can get

    My point is Wiggins was world class on the track. Its not unrealistic that after 4 years of dedicated training to road racing he has been able to adapt his physical ability to a different discipline.

    The Sky-Con-O-Meter. Predictions on how much more ridiculous they can get

    People just can't except that things continuously improve. Usain Bolt came from nowhere and blew the opposition apart, You didn't see the athletics fraternity jump on the band wagon and claim he was doped up. Cycling fans seem to want to maintain a self fulfilling prophecy about doping...

    the ignorance of people when they think they know someone from one interview which lasted no more than 3 mins is outstanding maybe they should look in the mirror before slandering other people for doping.

    Shimano FC- R553 BB replacement

    Any suggestions for a good replacement BB for this ? Is there any perceivable benefits between a tiagra, 105 or ultegra BB. I don't race, I ride every day to work all year all weather and regularly do sportives. Any help would be appreciated

    Teams & Riders Vincenzo Nibali discussion thread

    Seems to me like Nibali is trying to talk his way into yellow. He's commented on not being scared of wiggins ? well i've seen nothing to show Nibali's a real GC threat yet. Cadel is wheel sucking as usual. There's been little excitement so far. Lets hope more is done on the bike today than...

    Sportive preperation after Blood Donation

    Thanks for the tips. Foolish on my behalf to donate beforehand but they don't come round my area that often and I think its important to donate. And this ferrari bloke I deny all allegations I ever met him ;)
