fanievb Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 Dont understand why SAIDS took so long to release the results. They tested him at SA Champs on 6 Feb, then the lab assistant died in March (their excuse), so what did they do with the results in Apr, May, June ... Why sit on it to a week before TDF?WTF?If I'm not mistaken BS's results also took something like 4 months

Skubarra Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014 If I recall, about two years ago David George took EPO on the Cape Pioneer on the day that the stage finished on swartberg pass (with R100k prize money).  I think your memory is playing games with you, the positive test was in the off-season, announcement was right after the Cape Pioneer hijack - they could have entered the Munga with that prize money!

Skubarra Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014  Legalising it will be the closest thing to leveling the playing field as we're ever going to get. I'ts a very flawed and unethical solution, but hey, is the current situation any better?! Food for thought. Interestingly if you read Tyler Hamilton's book, each individual's body responds differently to doping (specifically something like EPO). Some will benefit a lot (someone like Lance?) and others will only see minor improvements maybe.  So as a matter of fact in a "free-for-all" doping enviroment the playing field will be even more skewed

eddy Posted July 2, 2014 Posted July 2, 2014  Legalising it will be the closest thing to leveling the playing field as we're ever going to get. Food for thought. BINGO !! The leveling of the paying field myth  Food for thought you say ? You clearly have not understood the issue, that is, if you gave it any thought at all. ps. Google can be your friend

javadude Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 SAIDS - 5 month turnaround time, how pathetic. Can we trust them? A person doing the testing died. I know at my job, if I die, it will take my replacement a couple of months to get up to speed.
Tumbleweed Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 SAIDS - 5 month turnaround time, how pathetic. Can we trust them? That's the likely defence: the integrity of the lab.

Joe! Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014   A person doing the testing died. I know at my job, if I die, it will take my replacement a couple of months to get up to speed. The test was done in early Feb, what did they look at the result for 4 months not knowing what to do next ...? The person that passed on was an assistant, its not as if the whole lab burned down.

The person that passed on was an assistant, its not as if the whole lab burned down. It's common. Often the samples are sent to a lab in Germany - seem to remember that was the case with Hoffman and McLeod - but not sure why there's such a delay for local labs. Anyone know who the local testers are?
