Tyler's book

[ColinJ]

I think the reduced W/kg numbers and slower average speeds up the big climbs speak for themselves.

When the Riccos of the peloton were ripping up the kind of nasty climbs they had in the Vuelta this year, and were jumping off their bikes at the finish looking really calm and collected and having enough breath left to immediately start gibbering away to the TV interviewers, you didn't need to be a genius or have access to their blood data to realise that something wasn't right!

Not even Kimmage thinks Wiggins is a doper ;-)

edit: btw, there are rumours that Hincapie is about to issue a doping confession.

I heard that too. Could be worth reading.

 

[Noodley]

Sorry, I was meanimg clean b4 Cadel and Wiggins...honest

 

[Noodley]

Lance grassing up Hamilton to the UCI for beating him at doping is lower than low. not only a dope cheat but a childish bully when beaten at his own game, and then denying it when hamilton found out. So a coward as well.

Oi feck the book get your arse out training ! You got 3 weeks

 

[DogTired]

Trolling for Wiggo fans? You're forgetting Cadel.

Have you heard Cadel speak? Clearly on helium. Not sure if its on the WADA banned list but it'll definitely help him up hills.

What do you think about Cancellara ? There seem like there could have been a hell of a lot of dodgy practices on the teams he was on.

I really hope not, he is such a classy cyclist.

Spoil away - only an idiot would read a thread about a book he didn't want to read about!

What we need is a thread about threads about books about LA. Then people who don't want to read threads about books they don't want to read could read that and thus not feel excluded.

What we need is a thread about threads about books about LA. Then people who don't want to read threads about books they don't want to read could read that and thus not feel excluded.

Also a thread for people who know he's guilty, plus a thread for the other 2 who know he's innocent.

Also a thread for people who know he's guilty, plus a thread for the other 2 who know he's innocent.

And of course a "He never tested positive" thread.

 

[ColinJ]

And of course a "He never tested positive" thread.

Not forgetting the "Are you positive that he never tested positive?" thread!

 

[Smokin Joe]

Not forgetting the "Are you positive that he never tested positive?" thread!

Then a hundred page thread where two people debate endlessly whether he was tested 238 or 500 times and ends when one does a massive flounce, the other is banned and the thread locked.

It's more a case of reading something and thinking "they did fecking WHAT!?" and re-reading it just to make sure I got it right.

I read it pretty quickly myself (finished it inside two days) but I want to read it again just to make sure I wasn't dreaming first time round.

d.

 

[Noodley]

I am now re-reading "rough ride", before then going back to re-reading Tyler's book

Is it worth me spending £9 on? I'm tempted but only tempted so far
