Haha, interesting first post... this is of course all from your neutral perspective right :whistling:

Lucky for me I don't dope or cut short of the swimming markers (I need them to hold on to for a quick breather :ph34r: )

 

Doping as a pro-cyclist is like stealing out the till, cooking the books etc It ain't cool and we're all sick and tired of it.

If you ain't good enough (like me and 99% of all cyclists) - find another way to make a living, don't rob the guys who do have the talent :thumbup:

this was posted on april 11 2013 already - old news

you really need to learn to read more than just the headlines. The tribunal was only held on 9 July.

 

To the point - its high time that the maximum sanction allowable is extended well beyond 2 years.
