    The official CBS 60 minutes thread

    A rare quiet moment from living-not-so-strong on twitter. Waiting to see the tried and tested PR genius of "500 tests and not one single positive" - not quite going to cut it this time methinks!

    Tyler Hamilton confessions/accusations

    I didn't believe he had actually posted those on twitter - but he totally has! Bit of a PR fail methinks...

    Charteau unimpressed by new 2011 polka-dot jersey points system

    correct me if i'm wrong, but in this article: http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/charteau-unimpressed-by-new-2011-polka-dot-jersey-points-system It seems to say quite the opposite from the title. I can't see what he was unimpressed by? In fact, it states:

    Jaw changes in cyclists?

    i get the impression interest has dwindled from this thread... however, if anyone is still interested, here's a nice example of acromegaly (gh excess due to excretory pituitary tumour): It may also be good to note that gh secretion is increased by such things as: low glucose levels...

    Garmin to support whistleblowers?

    I think it's sensible words from JV...for the riders to have the promise of support despite admission of "errors" in the past is a positive move for cycling. The riders will be more likely to break omerta, and will still have a career - and I for one would be happy to support them. I hope...

    RadioShack corporate contact

    Dear RadioShack, I wanted to write to you to express my disappointment that RadioShack continue to support several members of the RadioShack ProTour Cycling team during what many believe to be very well-founded and serious accusations. With these allegations and investigations into past and...

    Did FLandis commit Perjury?

    Clearly the people discussing the point in the thread care...hence the discussion. I think it's quite an interesting point whether Landis is putting himself in serious legal jeopardy by coming out with his story. That sounds reasonable, and I guess the conclusion is that he can and will not...

    Landis' position re. Perjury?

    I know it's been mentioned in a couple of threads, but my understanding of what exactly was said, and the legal implications of this is poor: What are the legal consequences of Landis' going back on his claim of innocence seeing as it all went to court and he swore under oath that he hadn't...

    Postal Positives

    Oh, i just did it too.... Can i post it anyway so my efforts aren't wasted? These are compiled from the start lists in the CN archive of each years coverage. 1999: 181. Lance Armstrong 182. Frankie Andreu 183. Pascal Derame 184. Tyler Hamilton 185. George Hincapie 186. Kevin Livingston 187...

    Sunderland leaves Sky!

    I agree, nuff said, but no point shooting someone down over what is a reasonable observation in what is a forum for discussion.

    Sunderland leaves Sky!

    The discussion on the Clinic has just been closed, but I think a good point was raised. I know TeamSkyFans is going to get at me for this... There's a good reason why SS has left, but there's a lot of coincidence in the timing, and it's also curious that he has left totally and with "immediate...
