Could you post some examples? I don't recall any of the frequent posters defending Contador as clean. I'd be quite surprised beyond maybe La Florecita.

I don't think anyone thinks conti is clean but personally i think he is super talented, I just love the way races and every other GC is on a program so he is a favourite of mine.

@BearBinnedFicus @SSbike @julienpretotRTR @PaulKimmage how many were invited to speak to circ? Zero on my team. Big weakness in report.

So Vaughters when you talked to CIRC did you tell them to invite your riders to come and talk in your 'dedicated my life to anti-doping' manner or did you tell your riders to go talk to CIRC in your 'dedicated my life to anti-doping' manner?

:rolleyes:

Don't we know the answer to this question, because it is actually in the report?

How about: How many volunteered?

Dave.

My question to 'dedicated my life to anti-doping' JV, was why didn't he kick thier ar$es down to the CIRC?

i'm happy he didn't.
the report would have been unreadable with crap statements about clean(ER) cycling.

I honestly think it speaks volumes that neither Millar nor any of the Garmin boys went to talk to CIRC, and then afterwards start a public campaign to discredit the report.

I also think the report did a pretty decent job exposing JV's ongoing clean(ER) cycling PR campaign for what it is: a load of salestalk.
"not what the cool kids do..."
"dopers now get ostracized"
"cycling is now clean"
he actually literally said all that. go figure.
 
So, Vaughters spoke about Comercial Agreements and Sponsorships at the Tackling Doping in Sport conference:

"Sponsorship uncertainty can cause desperation."

"When I was riding it was socially acceptable to dope - it was a a laughing matter."

and a shoutout to the haters: "Thank you for all the positive feedback and comments on my presentation today. I owe a lot of that insight to my fiercest critics"

This conversation about the acceptance of doping is moot, if the possibility of getting away with it is still there. Riders aren't in the peloton to make friends and be accepted. Whether the culture has changed or not doesn't matter, because the doping sure hasn't.

More BS from JV.

Where is it socially unacceptable among the peloton to dope? Contador shunned by all the other riders? Hesjedal, Dekker, Horner, Pozzatto, Piti, Scheleck, etc all these riders are socially unaccepted by the rest?

JV keeps going on about it being cleaner, Porte didn't get the memo? UCI stopped using Cologne lab as it was to good at catching doping.

JV a doper who never served his ban buying Porches now and drink fine wines. Its good to dope.
