rob Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 I don't care about doping, really. Doping has been a part of bicycle racing since, well, probably forever. These guys are always going to be one step ahead of the tests. I just hate guys that go overboard trying to pretend how pure they are. Its like cheating on a math test and then going on and on about how hard you studied, when everybody knows you wrote the answers on your arm. Just be more laid back about it. God, what a douche.

j_b Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 just like any tour rider, he simply wouldn't have been a tour rider in the first place without doping. it's just the reality now. I don't know that is an accurate statement since Festina in 98. Tour organizers have taken huge PR hits mostly thanks to their own exposing of doping and I suspect it isn't for no reason. and further, even though you still have to be the best of the best athlete to succeed even with the doping, you have to be good at diguising it, so the tour is really about being the best rider, with the best team, with the best doping schemes. you sound like the French during Armstrong's reign at TdF. Although you left out that Armstrong was the first specialist to gear his entire season around one race. Quote

God, what a douche. being laid back isn't really an option when winning the biggest race (and pretty much only that race) every year demands so much single minded preparation. Quote

joblo7 Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 most cyclists cant afford a private jet to go and get their blood removed and stored for a big race.... Quote
joblo7 Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 the case here is not about cycling as much as if WE, THE PEOPLE,are gonna keep following and admiring the 'equivocada' elite.. Quote
j_b Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 the case here is not about cycling as much as if WE, THE PEOPLE,are gonna keep following and admiring the 'equivocada' elite.. The public has been following the elite races of cycling for a long time and I don't see it changing. Quote
KaskadskyjKozak Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 First of all....its cycling. So who cares? Dude, there's a cycling crisis. WTF is the matter with you? Quote
Crux Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Fuck all this. I'll admit it. I'm all about cheating to go faster, so let me ask: I've been giving my bicycle EPO all year long, and still can't lower my ride-to-work time. Should I give it 'roids too, or will the associated weight gain just slow me down on the climb? Quote

ivan Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 I love cycling. I care. it's all those pro-cycling commercials you've been exposed to no doubt Quote
rob Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 And carbon. Lots of carbon. CARBON FIBER EVERYTHING!!!! Quote
KaskadskyjKozak Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 And carbon. Lots of carbon. CARBON FIBER EVERYTHING!!!! What about the GMO crisis? Wake up people! Quote

I don't think you'll find many who believe that doping in sport is ok, especially considering its effects on less than very elite levels (youth in particular) Quote
Off_White Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 And carbon. Lots of carbon. CARBON FIBER EVERYTHING!!!! Does carbon fiber give you lighter fluffier poops, is it better than metamucil? Quote
ivan Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 And carbon. Lots of carbon. CARBON FIBER EVERYTHING!!!! Does carbon fiber give you lighter fluffier poops, is it better than metamucil? if everyone uses carbon the inevitable carbon shortage (do the math!) will bring about the end times Quote
Kimmo Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 can't say i really understand all the hate directed at armstrong. Cause he's so goddamn self-righteous and smarmy about it. Can't he just be cool, instead of acting like a dickhead all the time? not quite sure what you're going on about, not even sure what "it" is referencing above. shit, the dude won the tour 7 times in a row, doing the same damn cheating as everyone else, absolute heart of a lion, trained like a maniac, and has raised what, hundreds of millions for cancer research and treatment. what do you do? sit around and spray about his shortcomings on an internet bb. enough said.

Kimmo Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 most cyclists cant afford a private jet to go and get their blood removed and stored for a big race.... and that's why he won. not cuz he out-worked out-trained out-planned (and yes out-foxed) everyone. jesus, you should learn about cycling. Quote
