    Quintana??

    I’ve been on 300mg (6 tablets a day) for 10 years. I’ve had spinal fusion surgery. it’s very effect and is a definite performance enhancer. It might not make you faster but it does allow you to use all of what you have, it mentally picks you up and kills pain. That brings said when you’ve taken...

    Study suggests Tramadol enhances TT performance by ~ 5%

    I was a long time prescribed user due to back pain, up to 400mg per day over many years. Eventually the performance gains dissapear but it's always a big appetite suppressant, it hugely increases motivation to train and aids sleep. It's a real *** to get off though

    British Hill Climb Champs??

    I've been at a few of the hill climbs in recent years and its generally windy, I know for a fact that the best times I've witnessed are all heavily wind assisted. If the figures are coming from a power meter and not a calculation well that's a different story. I know there's talk of one recent...

    Becoming a professional later in life.

    I would imagine if the OP is dedicated and fit he'll become a good amateur, I hope the OP isn't too put off. The chances of becoming a professional are minuscule but there's nothing stopping him falling in love with great sport of cycling. This is actually a great thread and I'd be interested...

    Becoming a professional later in life.

    Good luck to the OP, I hope he enjoys cycling at least and finds a sport that betters his life. Realistically the chances are slim. I live in the UK, its like me saying I'm going to start training to join the NBA, I enjoyed playing basketball as kid. I'm going to start training next week and...

    What is Jack Bobridge on?

    I don't think sports supplementation can be overlooked in any way, I'm sure they are on a very advanced programme of legal supplements, It's been the same way for years. Just like advances in bike technology and peaking for events. I can go into Holland and Barrett and buy a Nitric stimulant...

    What is Jack Bobridge on?

    I'm not sure he did anything illegal but there are substances out there that aren't banned that weren't around in 96. New things to make people perform better are being developed all the the time. The amount of time the old record on a non superman bike was broken by is what makes it hard...
