I wouldn't be surprised if the whistleblowers mixed up Ferrari and Cecchini. The last one has always ridden along or motorpaced his clients. The statements are also a joke only Russian apparatchiks and perhaps the corrupt ASO/UCI want to believe. As long as known dopers like Riis, Vinokourov...

Niki Terpstra?

Re: Re: Martin used to be a rider like Alaphilippe, but aimed higher in a GC. He changed his training scheme to tackle his lack of endurance, sacrificing his punch. It was clearly a bad choice. Personally, I think the Tour is very enjoyable. Teams like AG2R that are not on ketones don't seem...

As much as I like MVDP, he is surrounded by dopers: his father, his manager (who was caught as a doper and a dealer), and fellow riders like Stijn Devolder. His bike handling is fantastic, he trains a lot, talks sense, he's best in class, but those people should get out of his way to free him...

I agree, poor journalism. When Dumoulin criticized the press for not asking questions about the Aderlass operation during the Tireno-Adriatico (I think), Belgian cycling journalist Michel Wuyts said he regretted not being at the conference because "he would have asked that question". Well, no...

Re: Re: We think alike ;)

Re: Re: Ok, sorry if I misinterpreted "people say all sorts of stuff to further their agenda". I like feedback on my comments, though, and I've learned a lot already.

Re: It's not proven.

Re: Re: The lab director at uni. I asked if gummy bears were any good to mask doping. He didn't say yes or no, as I described above, but he was kind enough to answer. Maybe at some point we'll hear more of him and I will let you know. It gets a bit comical when you start suspecting forum...

Re: Re: Why so impolite? I asked an expert, I don't know who you are but I would say expert's opinions matter.

It's ok, the new thread on masking agents is a good solution. We're having fun.

I asked an expert, he said: 1/ It's debatable whether gelatin is really forbidden by WADA 2017 - although some components are (glycerol). 2/ It's unsure that it would be a good masking agent. 3/ ... but it's a good question (victory!). Nothing about IV or oral application, but the option was...

Re: It is said GVA has a cortisone TUE for an infection on his feet. Didn't look it up though. Also, he was seeing a doctor that applied ozone therapy to cyclocross riders. As the evidence was lacking, he was cleared from the case. As for the IV administration: we're here to learn... some...

Dear Moderators, I hope this is the right thread for complaints. I am responsible for raising doubts on the Haribos eaten by the World Champion, Mr. Peter Sagan from Slovakia. My humble posts have been deleted by your colleague Mr. Irondan, who seems to be upset about the speculation. I was...

Re: Re: I don't know why he used the Dutch link, but I suppose it's because he speaks Dutch. I explained the link between the NADO and WADA above. In the NADO-list, which is easy enough to run through Google Translate, modified gelatin is mentioned. Substances that are only sanctioned when...
