Revelations about the past of Mauro Gianetti, Pogacar’s Manager (Radio France Investigation, Translation in post)

I see what you did there...

Took my sarcasm and raised me your two cents.

Meant no harm, hopefully none taken.

I'm becoming very magnanimous these days. 15 years ago I would have gone to war on the absurdity of Contador's 2009 lake Annecy TT result. I think it's due to a drop in testosterone levels (mine, not Berties!).

Absolutely none taken.

I kinda treat the Internet forums like The Dude said " well that's just like your opinion man" . We can agree on things or disagree. As long as I'm/you're only hurting my/yourself and, I'm/you're not trying to take people's rights away or think you're better than someone for something they were born with/as/choose to believe, I'd still buy you a pint in person.

Of course, doesn't everyone do shots of EPO and rip lines of Creatine on Saturday nights before their Sunday morning ride to the coffee shop? Or am I the only one?

Meh, motor doping is where it's at.

 

[bagpuss]

If I had a good Saturday night ,I never made the club run .
Bass and kebabs to follow. Made to make you go fast .

Meanwhile as the plot thickens the bar gets ever lower and the snakes get ever sneakier...

Wasn't there a women's CX racer that got caught motoring long while back? And couple of roadie's that were presumably doing it too?

Motor doping in the road peloton? Maybe one day we'll have Just Eat or Deliveroo racing...until then though...

Yes - a junior in one of the WC rounds IIRC. Really ugly process vs the nod and a wink telling off and short ban if she had been knee deep in EPO and amphetamines.

I feel really stupid for saying this, but I had assumed Pog was just superhuman - a Merckx of his generation. But now I think about it, his career trajectory has been a little odd and he doesn’t have the normal climbers build which should have set alarm bells ringing. To be a great all- rounder in this era of scientific training and performance analysis is…difficult to explain. Still it may just be he won the genetic lottery like in Dr Hutch’s book.
