You saw Friggins 'just hanging in there'? LOL. Sky shredded the rest of the field from the first TT on. This Tour has been a total joke, and a sad return to the kind of systematic doping we used to see. And after seeing the Armstrong thing play out, I don't doubt any more that the UCI is...

Yes, adding insult to injury.

Really? It doesn't matter? We've seen some megastars of cycling come back from doping suspensions and suddenly be light years off their previous pace. I'd say that speaks volumes.

"...and if the B-sample is positive too, I will claim I was poisoned". That's comedy gold. I can feel some sympathy for Frank though, having to create stories while the elephants in the room rampage through the Pyrenees unhindered.

Plenty of hydration will sort him out. That and his incredible pedigree and work ethic.

I'm kind of surprised at that - he's Republican, right? After LA tweeted (twittered? whatever) an infographic a few weeks ago showing the Republicans being big donors to the superpac opposing the anti-smoking legislation he's been pushing hard for, I half wondered whether the USADA action was...

Well, I'd say your post here pretty well supports my point about some of the clinic posters being much the same alpha male mentality as Armstrong. All that said, I realise that sometimes you have to fight fire with fire. It looks like USADA is doing that right now, but in a way that's a...

With little high cadence, 'incredible pedigree', and a superior work ethic to the rest of those lazy SOBs. British pluck you know. /vomit/

I really don't mind Phil and Paul, they provide a soothing nostalgic noise and some bonus tourist guide info to beautiful France. I can work out what's actually happening well enough from the visuals anyway. That said, I've really been enjoying Matt Keenan's commentary and wouldn't be at all...

LOL, gold.

Yeah well, so we just have to wait for the French to catch him. Allez, gendarme ;-)

+ 1 Unfortunately Team Sky are turning in not just good but incredible performances. As in 'not credible'. Seen it before, fair enough to hope it might be legit, but repeated experience shows that hope is foolish. Maybe this time it's different... but realistically the odds are so...

Really? I'm going to have to look up that GB track team thing. I guess that would make sense, yes. Thanks for alerting me!

Yes, absolutely. Let's face it, at this point we can safely say the team they namedrop as their model did for seven tours. It would be a lovely thought, but in a word, no. That's exactly what we were told last time. SSDD. Until a positive test comes in or somebody spills the beans, which...

I think it is for me. I'm at the point where a few of my older cycling friends are. They're no longer really following pro cycling closely, they're immersed in their own cycling activities. Although, the French gendarmes could make the sun come out with a Festina style bit of news.
