Yeah, similar in the sense that manipulation occured and people would stay just shy of 50% or in the 40's with all the methods discussed in the Clinic. This is just a more sophisticated 50% rule.

If it dies, it will be a long and slow death. It is basically a way for the UCI to turn a blind eye on doping and allow dirty people to manage their programs, albeit with a lower level of doping than in the past. It targets people who are going above the acceptable amount of doping and...

It makes me wonder...have they cracked down enough to where doctors are scared to offer and administer their services now, especially someone with a past like Ricco? Essentially forcing some to attempt transfusions on their own? Perhaps I don't understand, but I thought blood transfusions...

Thanks! Daily longtime lurker in the clinic, but I never post. Anyways, just wanted to say thanks for the great discussion. That is all...got to sign out and lurk hard.

My thoughts exactly.

You might be a poser if... You only watch cycling in July. You cut and paste wikepedia knowledge into the Clinic and pretend to be a doctor. You leave your race number on your bike and/or jersey just so people around town know you race. You drink Michelob Ultra because Lance does...

I think he could. Possibly a shorter season will allow him to focus on soley on that event. If memory serves me correct, North Americans have always done well at Mount Sainte Anne. All the mud, roots, rocks etc, make it like a non world cup course. Also a good course for Kabush too and with...

Thanks for the read.

All I can say is wow! With his outspokeness against doping, my first thought was that he was just busted for maybe a bag of weed, but PED's? Money is evil...but necessary. Also, thanks to all the informative posters on this site. I read the forums regularly but haven't commented in a while.

I swear by bibs and will never go back to regular shorts but there is one, non financial, complaint I must voice. You ever get pre race jitters and have to use the john? With bibs on your pretty much have to get naked just to take a dump! And if your not carful, the bibs touch the nasty...

no surprise there

Shocked but not surprised. Very traggic indeed. He will now finally rest in peace.

This was during my latter high school years when my passion for cycling was on the rise. Being a n00b at the time I admit I was pretty shocked, but riding with older elites I began to realize that their charges of "so and so must be on the sauce" were for real and not as sarcastic as I had...

I agree that it is the car's responsibility to get out of the way, pull over, or wave the rider past. If you were on this guy's wheel would you have sat up after realizing the both of you were effectively drafting the car?

hahaha, thanks for that...very fitting I must say!
