    Froome's SRM data on Ventoux

    Anyone read The Times today? Apparently Froome says the numbers from Ventoux in 2013 can't be used to prove doping as "That's nuts, especially seeing as the data in question is over two years old". OK that makes sense......... At least The Times is talking about the issue.

    Nike Oregon Project

    Re: Re: I meant top sportsmen claiming exercise induced asthma is bullsh*t. I don't doubt this exists. I am by no means an expert but I don't think it's an immune response (which is how your body recognises and defends itself against bacteria, viruses, and substances that appear foreign and...

    Nike Oregon Project

    Re: Re: Well my take is that why is the incidence of asthma so much higher in athletes? Clearly helps performance or why take the stuff. And exercise induced is bullsh*t. If you reach your max natural limit then that's your natural limit- don't take drugs and still compete. If it's that bad...

    Mo Thread

    "As has always been the case, British Athletics will continue to take responsibility for all nutritional, medical and sport science elements of Mo Farah’s training regime.” So what exactly does Salazar do for Mo again?

    Galen has the same terrible affliction as Kara Goucher, Hashimoto's disease. An average of 1 to 1.5 in 1000 people have this disease. It occurs between eight and fifteen times more often in women than in men. Though it may occur at any age, including in children, it is most often observed in...

    Mo Thread

    Re: But why do they still keep repeating the spineless mantra "There is no suggestion that Farah has been involved in doping."??? When surely this is exactly what is being suggested. I think what they actually mean is that there is no (or Mo) evidence of Mo doping or that they haven't got...

    Am loving this story. An obvious fraud and a fake now feeling a bit of pressure. Mo looked like rabbit in the headlights in that press conference.

    The Climb (Froome's first autobiography)

    Yep, but I think it's a wooden Porte in the left window and a very skinny Tour ready Froome on the right !?!?

    The Climb (Froome's first autobiography)

    Just fell off my chair laughing. Einstein Porte bounding !!! What you having for breakfast ? I would love to see some of the quotes in this thread make it on to some roadside banners at the Tour.

    Idiocy on Everest

    Very interesting thread and some of the stuff mentioned beggars belief but now you've got me pondering what is the heaviest weight to summit? 120kgs+? Do you measure pre or post climb?:D

    Is Walsh on the Sky bandwagon?

    I think Kerrison is confusing himself with a physicist! Surely all he needed to say was that a crank based power meter measures the average power per pedal stroke. You will still get a variation of power during a pedal stroke with round chainrings depending on how evenly the rider pushes the...

    When is the smackdown on Chris Horner?

    No sitting on the fence! That's a knight of the realm you're talking about. Not much due diligence before that award me thinks. I just thought Wiggums was a bit thick but I guess when you think about it his double standards are outrageous. Kwality post.
