    2013 Tour of Oman (11th-16th February), 2.HC

    Look i am not going to win this but i would say my post does not infer doping or non doping, just that suspision can take the edge off enjoyment as it has for me on this stage of the Tour of Oman. Anyway i surrender you win. i did post a picture of the race to try and placate the forum gods.

    2013 Tour of Oman (11th-16th February), 2.HC

    As i said in the post. this was my reaction to what appears a very exciting stage of this race that this thread talks about. So as i said i do think it has a place on this thread. But i know if can fit elsewhere.

    2013 Tour of Oman (11th-16th February), 2.HC

    Now come on Spain lets test those Puerto blood bags because the thought that there might be one with AC's blood in it is taking the edge off enjoying these races. For the sake of the season i hope they can remove the cloud of suspicion either way so i can enjoy the performances for what they...

    Who's the sprint King..?

    the key comparison between Cav and AG from the 2012 tour was in Paris. After Cav won stage 18 the Lotto guys were all saying they were saving themselves for Paris.

    you can do what you want. i just thought it was funny and people might enjoy it. i didn't realise that i was committing some great crime by starting a new thread. this is a discussion forum and not the national archives.
