Did Lance also doing warm down? I thought it is Sky's new cover trick.
Is Tenerife the place that Anti-doping agents have a very hard time to reach, since the road is bad?

What do you think Leipheimer was doing there? They would put him on top of the volcano to spot incoming jets. When he saw one he would run back to Armstrong yelling, "Da plane, boss. Da plane!"

I love that 'warming down' is being pedaled as some great development. What next? Eating during a stage? ****ing while on your bike? Is there no end to this bullcrap?
 
How many more different threads are going to be started on this subject? Ridiculous.

I know, let's start one that says "Sky team colours compared to USPS colours ... and oh, by the way, Sky are dopers" :rolleyes:
 
Lance: "the last thing I’ll say to the people who don’t believe in cycling, the cynics and the sceptics. I'm sorry for you. I’m sorry that you can’t dream big. I'm sorry you don't believe in miracles"
Brad: "It justifies their own bone idleness, because they can't ever imagine applying themselves to anything in their lives...And it's easy for them to sit under a pseudonym on Twitter and write that kind of s..t rather than get off their a...s and apply themselves and work hard at something and achieve something"

Lance:"there are no secrets — this is a hard sporting event and hard work wins it"
Brad: "Everybody on the Tour works hard on what we do. The position I'm in I've work hard for and I deserve every minute."

USPS = Del Moral
SKY = Leinders

Lance/Bruyneel = promising transparency (Catlin), then backing down on promise
Wiggo/Sky = promising transparency (Kimmage), then backing down on promise

I was considering debating this, but it is utterly pointless and this is blatant trolling thread so I'm not going to bother. Have fun anyway. :)

I know, Sky love that 'cutting edge' bs.

Catlin was still dodgy, wasn't he? Didn't he fudge some of Lance's figures or am I imagining things?

Lance - matured tubulars
Wiggins - oval chainrings

Lance - having to ask teammate Heras to slow down after he dropped everyone
Wiggins - having to ask teammate Froome to slow down after he dropped everyone
