Now we get what you mean. This is seems rather likely, as there are quite a few teams that are starting to use Mt Teide for training camps and with the price of flights and the conditions there who wouldn't?Benotti69 said:The argument I have been making is based on set up and the smoke screen of altitute training otherwise why bother being there in June. The High passes in Europe are not full of traffic at this time of year. There is a tried and tested setup to blood dope in Tenerife.
Plenty dope elsewhere, but someone is making money in Tenerife by teams going there, whether it is the hotels who are 'onside', the cops, someone in the airport, whoever it is it keeps the teams going there to 'prepare' and Teams feel more secure there to 'prepare'.
Does anyone know what customs there is like? Are they normally strict or can they be like some places where a few dollars gets a blind eye? My guess is that if it's EPO, HGH, IGF etc that's available there it's probably coming in the same way as the stuff for the rest of the tourists.
If it's the full banking process then that suggests someone may be running an arrangement.
