Impey cooked

[Colonel]

and how do you know?

Not getting into a personal thing but I know very well the reasoning behind JLA retirement - both times - without putting his personal info on a forum which I hope you respect and understand while Im sure he wouldnt want it on here.

The guy's death delayed the initial testing of samples from the SA nationals.

michelle behind this??

 

[austy37]

ive also seen probenacid used in combination with antibiotic treatments when using cephalosporins for example, maybe he had a skin infection, or an STD or something?

He would have had a TUE then wouldn't he?

 

[Avoriaz]

I may be a loser but fairly or unfairly people are going to look into Froome's connection to Impey, my impression is they are good mates.

Apparently page 377 of the climb says something, I haven't read i though.

Impey is mentioned a few times. Anything in particular you are looking for? They were at rival schools in SA, they were at Barloworld together, Impey introduces him to Cound. Not very expansive on any of it

 

[Broken Spoke]

He would have had a TUE then wouldn't he?

In his statement on his personal website he says "I had no knowledge of Probenecid nor have I ever taken the substance knowingly in any manner". That limits his defence to a testing error (A and B sample?) or inadvertent ingestion (steak, chinese takeaway, protein shakes, etc). He also says "The notification came as a complete shock to me just days before the start of the Tour de France, particularly since anti-doping tests conducted on me on 8 and 9 February 2014 yielded no adverse results". That seems to leave the door to the defence of a tainted sample or lab error slightly ajar but most likely he will go the more successful path of plausible deniability via inadvertent ingestion.

I wonder if this decision is connected:

http://www.procyclingstats.com/rider/John_Lee_Augustyn

I mean the choice.

I don't think so. IMO the young guys at Barloworld had nothing more than an experience medical team who could get you up on a specific day. Maybe the elder statesmen had more (obviously many did, whether it was a team thing or not is another matter)

 

[zigmeister]

Yeah...wow. Cycling is sooooo much cleaner now.


"Probenecid is used to mask the use of doping substances (masking agent), anabolic drugs in particular, by delaying their elimination. The medical application of probenecid is to treat gout rheumatism."


Prebenecid isn't even that good of a masking agent...but hey, it is worth a shot when you are doping and worth the risk apparently to try and use to avert positive tests.

 

[Netserk]

I don't, but it's a fairly logical assumption and the most accurate one until we find out anything different.


The bottom line is running samples, analysing the data and reporting the findings takes time. It's not a case of samples are submitted and then run in the next few hours, as much as we might wish it was.

It's obvious you are implying that, no doubt with reference to Kreuzigers case which is completely different, NADO's are selecting when they wish to start proceedings against a rider or taking their time to notify them so they can continue racing. There is no evidence to support that. The time-frame for the series of events is perfectly reasonable.

Di Luca's test took only a month IIRC. I'd say this one is longer than normal.

When was the last time an A and B sample took more than four months?

The Santambrogio case was not resolved speedily.

 

[mikkemus23]

What's hard to understand? Rider is found with banned masking agent in his organism. Yes, he doped. 99.9% sure.

At least I`m not alone in being a little confused, just like Froome

 

[Netserk]

The Santambrogio case was not resolved speedily.

There was less than a month between the time he was tested and the announcement of his positive...

You'd have a point if his positive was from San Luis, not the Giro.

You said A AND B sample. There was no news of B Sample (after A sample in May and result in June) until September, and that's win no tester dying. Feb to June or June to Sept, not wildly different.

Michelle intro

Not directly but Impey introduced Froome to Michelle

Nonzense, she wuz part of the ameublement from when they were both still snotnosed....knew the world in Jozi.

 

[latrinus]

However CSA (cycling south africa) did take alittle to much time contacting Darryl I believe as they could not get hold of him or something in those lines.

What, we all have his email address?.....William Newman was asleep again.

 

[latrinus]

So in theory the UCI would have to have their hooks into Cycling South Africa (or whatever the national body is called) to be able to have any influence over this.

The UCI owns Cycling SA - so does SASCOC - very tight.

a real pity he failed the IQ test.

 

[Netserk]

You said A AND B sample.

Yes I did. Now tell me that the A and B sample took more than four months in Santa's case...

It was only the B, not A and B.

Probecenid is primarily a gout treatment that has also been used as a masking agent. Impey, FWIW, is a former teammate of Froome's

[Cycle Chic]

I was correct

So another result for Daryl Impey - good friend of Froomes....both in the south African stable - I predict a good year for Mr Impey.

I,m not following Oman but just saw Daryl Impey placed 4th. Immediately thought 'thats 2 south africans in the top 4'.....what ??

I then checked Impey's site and he was in South Africa from October 30th....wonder if he's about to start getting some unexpected results.

So will Impey go with the gout defence? that would be pretty good.

Skimming the responses to that tweet, the bots seem quite angry.

That's your idea of ballsy? Sounds more like cowardly to me.

 

[Race Radio]

Impey didn't just fail a dope test he failed an IQ test. Probenecid is easy to test for. This was not an OOC test but one done right after the SA champs.
