    Not really, it was long time ago. I don't have lab results any more, but when my doc saw them, she knew immediately I didn't have a flu, although all usual symptoms were there.

    No, these are the symptoms of a urinary infection. There are different kinds of kidney infections. Mine, for instance, wasn't painful and I didn't feel the urgency to go to the bathroom. I felt like I had a flu, with fever and tiredness and all... I certainly wasn't able to leave the bed for a...

    Kimmage on Wiggins, Sky

    The study was finished in March 2002, so it's reasonable to assume the riders in question participated in GT's in the period 1995-2001, taking into account their age at the time. Although I haven't got perfect match I'd say that riders no. 6 and 8 could be Oscar Sevilla and Jan Ullrich...

    Teams & Riders Froome Talk Only

    Re. no. 5: That one is unclear. Source: http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2013/jan/25/chris-froome-team-sky-tour-de-france According to this article, Froome had a test (2 tests?) in January 2013. He should've taken drugs sometime in February and then kept on winning the whole damn year. And the...

    2014 Tour of Oman, Feb. 18-22 (2.HC)

    Still no gaps, but Froome is 45' faster than last year's himself. See you on another subforum... :rolleyes:

    Here is your answer - everything explained by Froomie's room-mate personally after today's Tour Down Under stage: "This result is more than I hoped for. It was a very stressful day with crosswinds but I had my team doing an incredible work for me. Ian Stannard, Bernhard Eisel, Luke Rowe, the...

    Team Ineos (Formerly the Sky thread)

    Well, maybe he did, maybe he didn't. Probably didn't, but we'll never know. We are offtopic here, but anyways... To import meat in any country is quite a procedure, with certificates and stuff. It's the case also in China, I've checked. You cannot put it into your luggage or a team bus fridge...

    Team Ineos (Formerly the Sky thread)

    Just to make sure we understand each other: since we are in the Sky thread :D: yes, Sky are dirty, Contador was doping, but neverthless could've eaten that bloody contaminated steak. Rogers? Well, his case reminds me of Al Capone who got busted for tax evasion. But, pro teams or not, I simply...

    Team Ineos (Formerly the Sky thread)

    I'm not sure how are the customs rules in China, but i'm pretty sure nobody's allowed to transport raw meat over the border, either fresh or frozen. So, you simply cannot show at the airport with a mobile fridge full of raw meat. If you'd like to have something to eat that won't make you...

    We are cyclists. Everyone else rides a bike. How do you know you are serious?

    I'm with you on this one :D And the trunk size and its shape (no bulges, sufficient height) are the first things to check when I/we even remotely consider buying a new car.

    In Kenya? And it's supposed to be Lake Victoria behind him? I hope he sticks to pools there and doesn't swim in open waters, otherwise he'll have to take that bilharzia pills in January again... And we'll have to listen to the same story about difficult therapy and messed up bio-passport all...

    Official Lance Armstrong Thread: Part 3 (Post-Confession)

    This reminds me of my second time up L'Alpe d'Huez. I was there in 2004 during the Tour and heard that she climbed it in 87 minutes which is close enough to your information. And, well, I had to be faster :D Thus when my friends and I started climbing it, beating her time was of utmost...
