I can't see anything wrong with what Fabian is saying. Despite weighing more that 80 kilos, and having lost all cycling fitness, I'm sure doping wouldn't help me get to where I want to be either...

Tiernen-Locke has just announced his retirement from cycling.
"I have searched for the motivation, but the fact is that it's difficult to get fired up about the kind of races that I once saw as stepping-stones to the pro world. To make the sacrifices needed for me to be decent again, I'd need to be in a completely different mindset. And I wouldn't want to be a pro again anyway." -- http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/tiernan-locke-retires-from-cycling/

Interesting that he's "co-operating" with UKAD. Has he ever confessed?

Even more to the point, since he has returned to competition (didn't he moan about being given a 2nd cat licence at the start?) his impact and that of his team has hardly made any kind of splash, or even a ripple. Now why would that be, I wonder?

You can read the "make the sacrifices needed for me to be decent again" two completely different ways, to be sure. Spending tons of time on training or spending tons of money on...?
