[Michielveedeebee]

No Lance Armstrong?
EDIT: And no Berto

 

[LaFlorecita]

No Berto?

 

[ElChingon]

That is in no way complete, yet another selective list of riders one person things are the tops based on some new method to allow their favorites be at the top.

Nothing to see here folks.

 

[jordan5000]

Alberto should be there, Lance should be top 15 and I think Coppi deserves to be top 3.

Foreword: I don't know if this thread belongs to this sub-forum, if not, I apologize, you can move it, mods.

Discuss it but don't take it too seriously, it's just fun. I'll give you my system later if you're interested.

Okay, I'll bite. Why don't you tell us about that system? Let me guess. Does it involve an alternate universe?

Won the Tour: +100
Not a Rider I Like: -10000

 

[Luke Schmid]

Cadel Evans 53, is that good or bad?

 

[Ferminal]

Very good you would think, given that makes him almost the rider of his generation. It seems there is a strong blood doping policy.

Won the Tour: +100

Won Paris Roubaix +100

Won the Ronde -100

Id call it a rider I dont like policy like hrotha, more than a blood doping one, seeing as first of all, people are excluded for simplly having been rumoured to have blood doped. But others also rumoured to have blood doped are included.

I mean whats Cunego doing there?

If course plenty of riders from the same era are included too.

As has been said, nothing to see here.

I think Echoes list of him telling us whohe thinks has and hasnt doped should be moved to its appropriate sub forum.

Even more so considering its also a list which tells us which drugs Echoes thinks are kosher (the ones consumed by all his favourtire riders at the top) and which ones arent

 

[datalore]

rider score = ((current year - year of rider's professional debut)+(number of grand tour wins*100)+(number of classics wins*100))*(x)

where x is 0 if rider is Lance Armstrong or Alberto Contador, and 1 if not either of those two riders

 

[The Gnome]

I can't believe this...out-f-ing-ragous...you have the immortal Gustave Garrigou at #39...my god, he rates at least 34th...outlandish...

 

[El Pistolero]

A lot of dopers in that top 10. Yet no one that tested positive recently? Ok
