Yeah but he liked to work from home too

the sceptic said:Why would sky train at altitude if Brailsford doesnt even know how it affects the body?
EnacheV said:He copy the other teams maybe?
Do you have some more stupid questions?
the sceptic said:please explain why it is a stupid question, otherwise it looks like you are trolling as usual.

EnacheV said:Brailsford doesn't know it affects some medical numbers. As nobody knows as there are no studies.
But you ofc knew that
And your question is stupid because everybody does it because has good results, you know this and you only put that question as a new way of trolling in this thread.
Like im asking : Why you train if you don't know how it affects your body? when the problem at hand is "will training have a certain influence on some medical numbers, while there are no studies about it?"
Any extra "smart" legitimate questions?
sniper said:In the context of this extremely vaguely defined ZTP, not going to tenerife would be as obvious as not hiring Leinders.
how the hell do you compare france to tenerife?Justinr said:People on here really are losing it ... how the hell do you connect those two? You may as well say don't train in France because thats where Festina were based.
sniper said:my point is very simple, i.e. not very complex: if you have a ZTP that says "we don't hire docs from inside cycling because that looks bad and might lead to doping", then it's equally plausible to say "we don't send our riders to tenerife because that looks bad and might lead to doping".
where would a clean cycling team find non-dodgy doctors?TailWindHome said:Where would a clean team base itself?
exactly.Ventoux Boar said:Thanks for clarifying your definition of simple. But your analogy is a little broad: trying to win races looks bad and might lead to doping.
sniper said:exactly.
so why did sky insist on hiring docs outside of cycling? (honest question)
or hire docs whose reputation is dodgy among Clinicians only.Ventoux Boar said:You have a point. If you cared about your reputation in The Clinic, you'd never train on Tenerife.
sniper said:or hire docs whose reputation is dodgy among Clinicians only.
Ventoux Boar said:So. The most sophisticated doping program in the sport is secreted in an inaccessible holiday resort, famous for its historical links to dopers. To really keep things hush-hush, they hire a doctor, famous across the sport as a doping magician, and tuck the news out of sight on their website.
Have I understood, and is this all your own work or did somebody help you with it?

The grammar is a bit all over the place (he usually uses his BlackBerry) but he makes it sound like a great place to be training. Too bad the remote location would make it perfect for other things too...
