Re:
These bits, the worst of which I've highlighted. Drop all that, or just the bits hinting at new products and I don't have a problem. I've specified exactly what parts I have an issue with and how I have interpreted them. Maybe you can point out the hyperbole and I'll revise it?

This would also explain why it is mostly British riders who do advance to "alien"-level in Team Sky. As it is national institution, the best of "knowledge" is not to be given for your competitors...
I also think that cutting-edge sports medicinal research is more likely to happen in UK, than in Kazakhstan.

any available PEDs/methods as long as they avoid being caught. However, the rest of the teams are restricted to "known methods" of blood transfusion / micro-dosing etc. while I'm pretty convinced Team Sky has some completely unknown, off-the-market, unpublicised stuff which they can utilise freely without ANY danger of detection (at this moment). Quite BALCOish,but likely with public sources / funding instead of private lab.
- making the world of cycling even MORE unfair for riders. If the best stuff is (at least for a moment) available only for riders of certain nationality, why should others bother?
9) But in a world where one group of riders (apparently not even close to a full team) have stuff which no one else knows about...

If you get a chance, quoting the specific paragraphs or complete sentences that are insane would help me understand your somewhat hyperbolic post.
Thanks.
