Dave Millar - anti doping hero

[blackcat]

Re: Re:

Does Millar even know what he wants to do? He is being so indecisive that it is not unsurprising that he doped. He should be disappointed that the Circ report didn't do much except come out with facts already known.

i think you mean its unsurprising for millar to be surpised to found out he even doped. he does not even know he has doped, he is that lacking in self-awareness.

Millar reminds me of a tacky car salesman. He his desperately trying to sell himself as some kind of force for the good of cycling.
After reading his book which I found fu%%%ng depressing he seems to be oblivious to how selfish and how big his ego is.
He pooped up on TV with a stupid hat and stating the obvious.
He has nothing to offer cycling. Smile of salesman.

On p. 279/280 of Racing through the Dark, Millar says Saunier Duval dominated the 2007 Vuelta al PV in a way reminiscent of 1990s EPO fueled performances.
1. Way to ignore the EPO fueled performances of the 2000s (Millar clearly still a Lance pal at that time).
2. Sky was a couple of notches more dominant in the 2012 TdF than SD was in 2007 Basque Country. Never heard Millar say anything other than "CLEANS!" to that one.

You mean, the Pais Vasco won by the guy who narrowly beat Froome at the Vuelta 11, with two current QuickStep employees working for Saunier Duval as doctor and manager?
Cycling must really be cleans nowadays

It is.

JV, former doper, says so.
Brailsford, who refuses to release Froomes Vo2max, amongst other lies, says so.
Cookson, who has yet to change the anti doping system of McQuaid, says so.

and of course David Millar, who couldn't be arsed to talk to CIRC, says so.

Millar is still fuming after the CIRC report.

He really is so full of his own self-importance. And so full of ***.

 

[SeriousSam]

So how does he propose we identify the clean riders to hear their views? Was Armstrong a clean rider throughout his career in 2010?

wow.
According to Millar the CIRC report is inaccurate because many of the testimonies have come from "drug takers who had testified in order to get their bans cut."
He just summarized the essence of Garmin in that one sentence.

“What they should have asked is how the sport has got to a point where clean riders can win the Tour de France? What has changed is that there has been a full cultural change, which they have overlooked. Team managements are proactive, sponsors are hard-core, and the culture has changed from a doping one to an anti-doping one. Sponsors and managers have realised the only way to survive is to be clean.”

that's just perverse.
speechless.

 

[meat puppet]

Nothing surprising there. The tour is coming and it's better to be safe than sorry, or that is to have framed froomes total attacks properly for the Joe cyclist (lad). Take home point: they are cleans.

Re:

It's more insidious than that. He gets to sit on the UCI's anti-doping panel due to his inside knowledge of doping. So he's still profiting from his doping. He's got his own position to defend as well as any vested interest. We KNOW that in the run-up to the Tour something is going to crop up, because that's when it always does, so he's getting the retaliation in first.

I actually asked JV about that back when he was still posting here and for the most part answering questions we posed, about whether it sent a contradictory message that the guy who got the advantage by doping now got the advantage of being more use to anti-doping than a guy who competed clean all along, but it got avalanched by arguments and JV either never saw it or elected not to answer.

Millar is brown nosing for a bigger job, either at Sky or UCI......

Yes but as a Trainee for a few months
I doubt SV put him on their program

Millar talks about the cultural change! Where, when and how did this change come about? That he gets away with spouting such bollix!!!

Yes a fat, unfit trainee, apparently :-/

I doubt it as well, but he was now connected to the right people, and did spend time with those guys, all of whom doped. Except Millar.

His aspirations have undergone significant marginal gains.

Thomas's ability to ride fast was confirmed when he won the team pursuit gold at the Palma, Spain Track World Championships earlier this year. The GB team went under four minutes for 4,000 metres, pace Thomas hopes to show at the Tour. "I see myself as a lead out man at the moment," he concluded. "I seem to be able to hold the top end for a long time and stay on the front from two kilometres out. Further down the line I would like to see what I could do in other races like the one-day classics."

I take my hat off to him, Millar is certainly trying to fool all of the people for a lot of the time. The smoke screen he is putting up for Sir Brad, Sir Dave, the Dawg, G and the rest including LRP is awesome.

Dave - I think the rest of us worked out why the riders didn't contact CIRC, they are scared they will be asked questions they will have to respond with a lie. Only one rider coached by his female support can pull off the face-down without flinching like Sutton can.
