Garfield2010 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Non of them gives a damn about truth, honour, cycling, cycling development etc except on what can be gained from the exposure. Honour? There is no honour left in cycling. I do however agree on your point of not supporting ex-cons. Watch this space however... Soon Lance will bring out another book.... this is like the joost/amor saga. The one goes to huisgenoot and the week after the other goes to heat etc etc etc..... watch this space I bought Floyds book way back then. Can I sue him for selling a lie?

More than we can ever imagine. I think the tour is vrotter than ever. Also read Bad Blood by Jeremy Whittle. Amazing book. Quite ironic that this guys says that more money is pumped into doping research (how not to get caught) than cancer research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thumbpa Posted September 18, 2012 Share started reading bad blood last night actually, pretty good so far.with all the quotes and excerpts (in secret race) from other riders/coaches who happen to be 8 of the 9 collaborating with USADA i dont see how armstrong is gonna wangle his way out of this one. its is quite ridiculous how much they were injecting into themselves, probably more than a heroin addict does. for those who havent read it, its a must read.

Ja and what really gets me is this crowd still saying he never tested positive blah blah and all that bullcrap. In this book they explain how it really works. I was the biggest Lance/TDF fan 4 years ago until I read Bad Blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R307 @ Exclusive Books When i get my 15% back (vitality discount) the hardcover from exclusive books works out cheaper than the soft cover + delivery from kalahari. Not bad deal then. Looks like kalahari forgot to notify me that they have it in stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Legs Posted October 3, 2012 Share Rather spend the money on the MAD foundation than lining the pockets of a disgraced cyclist feeding of the sensasionalism created by another disgraced cyclist. An autobiography by a known cheat is as much fiction as Mills&Boon.Non of them gives a damn about truth, honour, cycling, cycling development etc except on what can be gained from the exposure. I challenge you to read the the book and tell me if you still have the same opinion and if you do, please tell me where you think Hamilton did not tell the truth. If you don't want to spend the money on the book, pm me your postal address and I will send you my copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tumbleweed Posted October 4, 2012 Share Wonder if he's paying royalties to LA and the like. He is essentially the lead actor in the book... Not likely after the allegation that Lance set the UCI on him. Talking of which, that incident appears weird. Was there any precedent for the UCI calling a rider in for a meeting to tell them they have suspicions about their blood results? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was there any precedent for the UCI calling a rider in for a meeting to tell them they have suspicions about their blood results? That was odd. The Hein and Pat mafia seem to play by their own(or Lances) rules. I also find it odd that Landis has to pay Hein and Pat 10000 euro each for badmouthing the UCI. Surely he should be paying the UCI that money and not the individuals that run it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
