Does anyone seriously think this is a sign that vino isn't up to his old tricks?
Or is Evans on the "improved formula" rice cakes?

Ferminal said:Or Evans finally achieving what he's promised to do for many years. This is no more an indictment than Evans' L-B-L performance. I doubt the Phonak 2.0 "doping is very individual" ethos has changed anything - (if) Evans is juicing, he didn't start yesterday (why resist for a decade only to give in to it in your twilight).
It's also hard to compare on such a day though. Vino did cook himself a bit trying to push the pace a few times before the finish. A few more factors than usual were in play today.
Forget Evans, what about "I am vehemently anti-doping" Pinotti and the Clean Prince?

issoisso said:Yep. I just don't see how a top rider (like Evans) can be clean and consistently beat dopers.
I just don't see him beating dopers consistently...

think he or she is being facetious. It is absurd. Come on Craig, a little critical perspective.craig1985 said:WTF? Are you actually trolling or could you back this up? And don't cop out on the speculation/rumour/read it on another forum crap.
