    Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

    What strikes is me how even taking into account they are doping it's amazing how they improved the past 4 years and even the performance fluctuations in the 2024 TDF are crazy. What single doping intervention is even powerful enough to produce these results? We can rule the two obvsious...

    Doping In Athletics

    A lot of "fat burners" and endurance enhancing compounds are spiked with GW1516 apparently. Especially Sr9009 and Sr9011 .

    Vingegaard vs Pogačar - The Duel

    This is duel is epic to say the least. But it's giving me a headache not knowing who to root for. :tearsofjoy: I like Pogi he gives the sport such a positive vibe but on the hand i really despise sportswashing and dislike UAE. Vingegaard is a hard to root for seeing is abit bland and i'm a...

    I don't believe Pog is far off his best if at all. He went ~40s faster today than he did in 2020 going pretty hard. Looking at what Rogla has done at th Vuelta in recent years after serious Tour crashes really put into perspective how close to 100% these guys can be after injuries. His busy...

    Team Visma LAB

    What strikes me is how confident they are showing their strength day in, day out. It used to be good practise in cycling to throw in some sandbagging performances here and there when you are dominant to calm down the critics. Hincapie talks about on his show and it was quite obvious during the...

    I can honestly see a world were Big T was on a conservative program of testosterone, corticoids and some microdosed Epo and he wasn't ready to hop on the nuclear program by Jumbo which possibly includes multiple BBs, perfluorocarbons and god knows how many research chemicals.

    Most memorable doped perfomances?

    WvA clearly saw my comment, got triggered and decided to prove me wrong by dropping Pogacar on Hautacam. Well it did work. I take back what i said he is the one and only Alpha Mutant :tearsofjoy:

    Not even close to the Yates bros they perfected the art of cracking spectacularly :tearsofjoy:

    Most memorable doped perfomances?

    McNulty might just have taken the crown from WvA this Tour. His ride today was beyond ridiculous especially after his performance the past 2 weeks.

    What's even more worrying is how they somehow regressed even compared to 2021 at least. I'll give them the benifit of the doubt though until the first stage in the alpes.

    Hills like that would be peak Allaphilipe terrain but even he would have had a hard time following todays nuclear attack.

    Primož Roglič

    I find it easier to stomach being on form all year like Roglic compared to Pogacar being completely off the past few weeks.

    The only interesting thing he states in the interview is that the slovenians are likely using fluorocarbon (synthetic haemoglobin) as it wouldn‘t trigger the biological passport and is virtually undetectable according to him. Ow and he also states up to 90% of the current peloton could be clean...

    Teams & Riders Everybody needs a little bit of Roglstomp in their lives

    I doubt Rogla performance wise yesterday but i‘d argue the whole race would have turned out differently if he was in it. Roglic would have been harder to drop than Carapaz and could feasibly made it to the top of the Col de Romme with Pogacar and i doubt Pogacar would continue to drive the pace...
