Tumbleweed Posted January 7, 2013 Share M. Good point. I think during the 90's certainly the whole pro peleton doped. Maybe not all the time. Maybe not as systematically and as organised as LA did but I think they all did. And I think quite a lot of them still are to some degree or another. The late '80s to '90s upped the doping game. EPO and blood manipulation changed everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Omega Man Posted January 7, 2013 Share The late '80s to '90s upped the doping game. EPO and blood manipulation changed everything.Ja. For sure. I was chatting to a local xc pro racer about the David George thing and he reckons that guys are doing the 1 day classics on Crack to make their bodies forget about the paid for a bit. Hectic if it's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaco-fiets Posted January 7, 2013 Share Intersting point... what impact would a confession have on his ex sponsors? Just my little theory that the major financial contributors knew exactly what was happening and joined in the effort to establish a icon in the cycling world. These brands profits in the US got boosted massively when he reached icon status. Creating a hero with a touching story at all cost was the project and they coined big time (and still is) from the success Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Omega Man Posted January 7, 2013 Share wasnt the oakley chic complicit in lances doping?I wouldn't say complicit. If i remember correctly the big wigs at Oakley forced her to lie under oath to protect LA and therefore Oakley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tumbleweed Posted January 7, 2013 Share wasnt the oakley chic complicit in lances doping? Stephanie McIlvain. Betsy claims she was bullied into lying at her SCA deposition. She also is alleged to have threatened her at a later stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyMartin Posted January 7, 2013 Share He can get his other druggie mate Robin Williams to play him. They might not look alike but both used a lot of drugs and at least Williams does ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
