A full screen test for all the substances on the Prohibited List costs R1260.00. An EPO test R1740.00. R26 390.17 seems a bit excessive. I was the only one caught, out of all those tested. They tested an average of 15 riders a day. Who's paying for all of those tests...?

Well the letter stated that if I refuse to consent to the Acceptance of Sanction, then the UCI will ask CSA to initiate disciplinary proceedings against me. I've said I'm okay with that. Not out of arrogance, but I just feel as though that fine is unreasonable, and I'd rather see what CSA have to say about it.

So I've been waiting for news of my fate over my doping charges for a while now. Saw Swiss Van asking in another thread what's come of the whole thing. I figured because I posted about it on this open forum that I'd keep you up to date. If only for interest sake. Received an email from the UCI today offering me an 'Acceptance of Sanction' I have no problem with this Sanction, in which I'll be serving a 2 year ban. I said I'll take responsibility for my actions. What I do have a problem with is paying a 2500 Swiss Franc fine along with this signed Acceptance of Sanction. That translates to a little over R26 000. Not a chance...! I thought there's probably very little chance any of you will ever get to see what any of these letters look like, so I've decided to attach them for you to read yourselves. The explanation I sent to the UCI and CSA was very similar to what I posted here, albeit slightly edited to make it easier for the UCI to read. My original admission of guilt here had quite a bit of slang and South African lingo in it, so I just omitted some of that. 2013 05 30.r.explanation.UCI.017.13.pdf

Can I wear XTR socks if I don't have XTR...?

Probably know's that 'cleverer' is not a real word.

Ultimate fake purchaser...?

I may know of a way that can get you there quicker...

My case aside though eddy, where do you draw the line...? You and your wife enter the 94.7 for the 1st time and get seeded as amateurs in batch ZZ. You're feeling a bit of a sinus issue the day before and decide, as you do every time u have a sinus issue, to take a couple of Sinucon tabs, 2 tabs 3 times that day, and another 2 on the morning of the race.you're a social rider, no hope of placing anywhere significant. You're not a pro, so what the hell is a TUE anyway, you've never heard of it. You finish in 5 hours. But you don't know that by having that quantity of pseudoephedrine in your system, you just cheated. Then Robert's your Father's brother, "Please sir, won't you accompany me to this tent over here and part with no less than 90ml of your finest excrement". DOPER...!!!

I'll start negotiating with the MD this evening...

What kind of idiot 'dopes' to come that far back in the fie.... .... Oh, wait...

Though it can mask other PED's, on it's own it can actually enhance performance, in a similar way to Ephedra. It's an Amphetamine.

Just file your long ones down with a Dremel...

These informative tech posts from JB are awesome. I'd really love to attend a Yellow Saddle workshop. Think I'll suggest that birthday idea to the missus n fam.

Hmmm, not so fast... I emailed you guys a few days ago through your website, on Industry Nine replacement spokes and I still have not yet heard back from you.

Porte is a MACHINE...!

Would the i19's be the equivalent to Arch EX's or Crests...? If the i23's are the equivalent of Flow EX's.
