Not sure if you're just trolling, or if your argument is beyond the average hubber. Anyway, I agree with you. Say for example I wake up the morning of the race, and have a toothache. That makes me perform nor optimally (it would make a difference in my performance if I was just doing a regular desk job), right? So I have a couple of aspirin, and feel right as rain, and perform to my usual standard. So, the simple aspirin "enhanced" my performance. One might even be inclined to refer to it as a performance enhancing drug. Remember the one Tour de France, when Jonathan Vaughters got stung in the eyelid by a wasp? He could have got an exemption from the Tour doctor for a steroid injection in order to carry on the race. He chose not to take the supplement drug, and withdrew from the race. Now, surely even the most narrow minded and simplistic hubber can draw a parallel between that and an over the counter energy or dietary supplement? So, where do you draw the line? (If it helps get your head around this line, take a look at how caffeine was banned one day, and free to use the next. Under the banned days, a rider could get nicked for having one too many pre ride espressos. Where is that line again...?)
