Are you a supplement retailer by any chance?
I used to be a modest customer, but befriended a reseller to get some good insider info. I lack knowledge to be a worthy retailer though, if I even wanted to be one. Not that lack of knowledge seems to keep many retailers from claiming to be such.

Oh it was funny, no doubt about that. Especially the Phonak jersey part lol.

If anyone for a moment though thinks that riders aren't doping in Melbourne club grade racing, then that is even funnier.

Had a member of our club who shamelessly admitted to taking ephedra prior to each of our club rides. These were club rides, not races. Not even training rides. We were simply out for some fun on our bikes in an organized ride scenario. All I could do is shake my head in disbelief that someone would feel the need to do this for a club ride. Pretty pathetic.

Maybe he has bad allergies or EIA. If that is the case it wasn't performance enhancing, but performance loss limiting.

And would you expect the guy to get a TUE for the club ride?
