  1. Betsy's my good man, Betsy's. Google has ALL the other "evidence"
  2. Odd that. Lance has been criticized for hiring the best legal minds. Could that not also be understandable in light of what he has to lose if found a doper, more so if he is innocent ??
  3. "The federal investigation into the Lance Armstrong case lasted for nearly two years with numerous “reports” of eye witness testimony “proving” Lance Armstrong used prohibited substances during his career. In addition, various other information unearthed by leaks, interviews and the press pushed the court of public opinion further against Lance for many people" Other than her claim to have overheard LA admit to doping (and why should she lie ??) , what evidence was damning.
  4. You reckon he's calling their bluff as he knows he can bribe/sue/threaten WADA/USADA into making it go away. Is WADA/USADA really that limited in resources or ethics that they they will allow themselves to be corrupted or intimidated. During the Feds inquiry everyone was stating there was no way they could be bribed and intimidated. Then when the case is dropped they make this claim.
  5. Go Lance In January 2011, Sports Illustrated published a story containing allegations that Armstrong used performance-enhancing drugs. Knowing that USADA announced it was investigating him and his sport the previous May, he took to Twitter: "Great to hear that USADA is investigating some of SI's claims. I look forward to being vindicated." If Armstrong is so vigorously supportive of USADA's work, we should be, too.
  6. That should be the safest road on East rand. The section to the yellow line is almost as wide as a standard lane.
  7. For my first Argus in 2000 i bought a R399 Makro MTB bike beginning January, training consisted of a few 10km neighborhood rides and 2 longer rides of 35km and 60km. The 60 km ride took me around 3 hours so i banked on riding 5 hours for the Argus. This was the first time they included Ou Kaapse weg in the route and close on 7 hours later i wobbled over the end.
  8. The helmet less one is not that bad, he greets me when i'm on my MTB, something other roadies don't do.

    yeah i better take a medal or BigH will be on my case.
  11. So these guys (UCI) got it wrong when they claimed it was improper when in fact it was proper, just a different test procedure. In October 2005, in response to calls from the International Olympic Committee and the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) for an independent investigation, the UCI appointed Dutch lawyer Emile Vrijman to investigate the handling of urine tests by the French national anti-doping laboratory, LNDD. Vrijman was head of the Dutch anti-doping agency for ten years; since then he has worked as a defense attorney defending high-profile athletes against doping charges.[90] Vrijman's report cleared Armstrong because of improper handling and testing.[92][93]The report said tests on urine samples were conducted improperly and fell so short of scientific standards that it was "completely irresponsible" to suggest they "constitute evidence of anything."[ The outcome was accepted by IOC and Dick :Pound was bitch slapped for calling it a farce The WADA rejected these conclusions stating "The Vrijman report is so lacking in professionalism and objectivity that it borders on farcical.".[95] The IOC Ethics Commission subsequently censured Dick Pound, the President of WADA and a member of the IOC, for his statements in the media that suggested wrongdoing by Armstrong.

    Its a flattish race, first section is fast some climbing around Heidelberg and then undulating on the R23 back to Boksburg so keep some energy in reserve, if you find you using too much energy slack off and wait for next big bunch, last bit is a fast downhill to the stadium. Boerrie rolls and beer to recover.
  13. Except for the bum cream and the 99 test in question (UCI will be hugely embarrassed as they cleared him of wrong doing) i'm not aware of any other test that was tested as suspect. But judging by the enormous amount of other evidence its a guilty verdict then. Any other outcome, even an insufficient evidence one would be proof that WADA/USADA were bribed.
  14. I stand corrected
  15. Scene A probably but here's a hint, record the conversation where LA or his lawyers makes the offer. Scene B surely if positive that cannot occur.
  16. 26" with training would be long ago heard of hubber Lemmer, i think he still holds the record.
  17. WADA/USADA need to do a thorough job now, the LA Trolls or LA Disciples await
  18. More incentive for LA to open his cheque book and use some more of his ill gotten gains (Livewrong) and hire more lawyers.
  19. Ah so WADA do not need 100% proof. Based on probabilities and here say they can find guilty (e.g NO one can ride TDF day in day out clean. Although not tested as per laid down procedure and possibly tainted the 99 test is admissible. The many that claim to have heard/ seen/ or indulged in doping regards LA is admissible (why would they lie??). Links to DR dope is proof that he doped. The riders that rode with LA and have been caught is proof he was aware and even partook in doping himself). Riders that testified they never saw him are avoiding the truth. Riders that testified he did not dope are outright lying. Official bodies that cleared him are lying. Yay for WADA, the truth shall be revealed
  20. F group winning time last year was 3.08 last person in group 4.56.
  21. True but this is LA we are talking about. anything is possible.
  22. Cool, another theory in the mix. LA will rat on his cronies, risk losing his cashcow (Livewrong) and open himself up for civil prosecution from those he's bribed/threatened. Would not want to be in his shoes
