I couldn't agree more. For me, professional cycling has the potential to be the most intriguing and entertaining televised sport in the world. If the riders were all off their PEDs in the 3rd week of a grand tour . . . Ooooh, I get goosebumps just thinking about watching such a race. It's just...

He he! 'Spandex doping' now - good one! :)

I don't understand people who post in this forum sometimes. Everyone seems to come down hard on dopers but then when someone like Offredo pops his head out to give his opinion, because he hasn't juiced himself up to buggary and "won" 4 grand tours, his opinion carries no weight?? If you want to...

Perhaps if Paul the Octopus was to slip his tentacles around a Cadel Evans doll and "pick him" as the winner of the Tour, it might precipitate saturation coverage of the event on the mainstream "news" :p

If you didn't know that was actually written by a professional cyclist, you'd think it was a piece of satire and you'd be having a giggle at it, thinking "yeah, that's probably the attitude of a lot of professional cyclists - yo ho ho"

If that is the attitude of this potential new cycling team owner (or current team owner seeking a sponsor,whatever he is), I doubt his team would last any length of time anyway. If you're blaming Landis, why not blame every newspaper that published the story as well? It's like singling out a...

I think the TDU is definitely evolving very well - Jens Voigt was correct when he said he used to be a "high quality training camp". (I think that's what he said) I reckon it's changed just perfectly over the years to suit the riders/teams esp the Europeans etc. Putting a pro tour event in Jan...

I had a double inguinal hernia operated on when I was about 13/14yrs. Very painful 48hrs after the surgery, but not too bad after 2wks. Was told no cricket for 6 wks, but was back playing after 5. Was a bit painful, but after 7-8wks I'd say I was fully recovered. Given that I was a fast bowler...

I too, often sit here pondering how much I would pay to watch live cycling. Maybe not quite half my pay packet, but it would certainly be a fair amount. I haven't tried watching cycling.tv for at least a year, but when it worked for me (in the short time it did), I loved nothing better than...

Hi, Duty and GST is payable on all goods purchased of value over AUD 1000.00 (or thereabouts - wont go into it now) Duty is not payable, only if the goods are duty free due to a free trade agreement with the overseas country (US, Thailand, NZ etc) or if there is a tariff concession, or if the...

I can't be bothered reading the whole post. Did we find out who created the creator? I can't help but think we're greatly insulting this creator by assuming the greatest and most extreme work of fiction ever known - the Torah - is his work, and his "instructions".
