Don't worry, the UCI has an iPhone app which kinda, sorta detects motors, sometimes

In order to detect motor doping, one must first start looking for motors!!!

The UCI will take care of it, they are all about transparency and using Candy Crush to detect motors.

He stayed in the race, 10 minutes back, bad day for Dawg I'm sure he'll be "firing" by Romandie

no, he was at 9 sec at the intermediate
you should know better than me that he is too carefull on wet descents because of his bad riding skills

This is too funny, Froome raising an issue with a conflict of interest? Uh huh...

It didn’t take a post-race interview to reveal how Chris Froome felt about the cold, snowy conditions at Tour de Romandie Tuesday. Sky’s two-time Tour de France champion (and also twice winner at the Swiss race) was vocal on Twitter, raising concerns about the weather and the potential conflict of interest surrounding Richard Chassot, the CPA’s rider representative for extreme weather.

That’s one way to get your race to go ahead without those pesky concerns about rider safety @TourDeRomandie @cpacycling

See, he gets too cold like this because he doesn't drink coffee. Even David Walsh knows you should drink coffee.

To be fair on Froome, normally he is raging with heat on Prednisone and having Oli Cookson sort out who's bike gets checked for motors via Brian. Without that, now there suddenly is a conflict of interest, lol!

The Dawg is too funny.

Wiggo pushes harmless fan:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXqLYH1k7Lo

in 2009 Wiggo allegedly also kicked the crap out of somebody in a hotel hallway.
http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/blog/tour-de-france-in-andorra-67659#Z3xXBlqJwkRHoy13.99

to keep it on topic: Wiggins and Cadel do make Chris look like a rather agreeable bloke.

Froome is more sinister. He takes out his mental issues on animals.

I don't think they'll risk him any longer, to much chance with thermal cameras out on the Tour route. Just can't seeing them let Froome go bananas anymore.

Why? They're even letting their classics team go bonkers this year, look at Rowe, Stannard, Kwiatkowski, Poels, Possoni etc.

Just wait until Froome and Landa race something they actually care about It's gonna be carnage, and totally hilarious.

You are probably most correct. Landa has only raced 10 days this year and is at Pantani 1987 levels. Dawg has raced very few days with little form but he will be motoring with Poels and Thomas Geraint.

I do hope they put Landa in the Tour squad. That would be full *** cycling like we've never seen before

 

[dacooley]

yes, mutant froome or landa crushing the strongest possible field not breaking sweat is terrible, but at the same time someone crushing mutant froome and landa is welcomed. great point.

Agreed, without a TTT this year, Landa will open up the sprint at the base of Ventoux and let Froome attack with 1km to go. It will be a 1-2-3-4 with Froome, Thomas, Poels and Landa will decide to keep riding and get 4th.

Should be fun to watch. What a spectacle!

aren´t sponsors splashing cash to the teams so that people buy their stuff?

otherwise no sponsors, no cash, no teams, no races

People race every Sunday. Sponsors not required.

oh yes. just notice that this forum was not set up for discussing "people racing every sunday without sponsor"

Very true!

No other team has colour coded water bottles, it's not possible that anyone ever in the history of cycling thought to separate water from electrolyte drinks. Other riders are forever pouring sticking Gatorade on their heads. If only they had colour coded bottles or bottle tops...

 

[LaFlorecita]

Oh that is ridiculous

 

[sniper]

it's a minuscule gain.
several minuscule gains together make one marginal gain

Re:

and several marginal gains make riders as good as if they're on PED's (or hidden moto's)

Re:

Looks like today they got the colour coding mixed up. G most have got the correct colours
