@SwissVan; maybe some are more equal than others with TUE's eg. Froome's vroomed through the system in record time. And he was on some heavy **** I understand.

 

What's happened to Impey?

Could someone apply for a TUE directly through WADA or do you have to go through your country's anti doping.

Oom, there I am with you...look at this pearl. Nike is/was one of their sponsers...yet their own team members are allowed to slate them. I mean really, you cannot script this

Maybe Brandon can comment on how behavior like this is tolerated in his team, yet they are the first to cry about sponsorships being hard to come by, how is this looking after your sponser, showing him ROI??? I would be seething if I was nike SA.

Each Rider has there own eyewear sponsor, Max (adidas) Kevin (Oakley) ME (Nike) Just to clear things up for you there.

@Brandon/Mousea

 

Can we see copies of the SAIDS forms where the testosterone use was declared by Brandon?

Even if just the form filled out from the positive test - it has to be in the case file...

 

Otherwise, this is all just a fantasy story from my view

 

The end.

How can I post a photo here and I will show two forms where I declared the USE of testo to the UCI at the Cape Epic... Sorry not so good with the hub

You have to go through your Local Anti Doping.... Each agency is governed by WADA but can have some different criteria to WADA. I thought if my TUE was not granted then SAIDS would tell me to stop racing until the product was out my system, but you know what its like when you have flu and you want to race... To rush to the doctor because you want to better yesterday already/.... And when its your job its even harder... Also not to sure why they couldn't have said because I was upfront they can grant a retroactive TUE which means its back dated from the date you took treatment till the time they grant the retro active TUE which negates and positive test... That's what happened to Chris Froome now with his cortisone they granted a retro active TUE with 2 days.... In South Africa it takes 6 months????? [/b]

And if you are viewing in the mobile site.. first switch to full version..and if the file is too big then you need to make it smaller.

 

You can also post pics if your new bike, if you get a new bike . Cause now you can ride any bike you chose to..

 

(Too soon?.. my bad)

Be that as it may...how can you allow a fellow team member to slate(even if its tongue in cheek) a sponser on a public platform that puts food on your table...I would not tolerate this, even if its just purely out of loyalty to a brand that supported you through the doping thing.

Yoh.. there should be one bloody governing body WADA and they should just have offices all over the world. .

 

*but don't worry we also slated Froome for his TUE and inhaler stuff see.*

I think you are making this a bigger thing than it actually is.

Thanks for posting Brandon

All we do on the hub is slate, this whilst more serious hub stuff happens.

One guy joins the HUB to win a photo contest with a very clever trickery photo and then disappears and another one joins the HUB to sell his honey.

Then the regular more community based contributors gets warnings and suspensions left right and centre for having a bit of fun at times.

They are best friends and its a light hearted joke, you take life to seriously and the sponsors like a bit of fun rivalry, between their brands.

Really, should we ask Nike that paid him if they were cool with that considering he is the team owner / manager...would you have been if you were the sponser. For a company where brand is everything, to be treated like that in unacceptable and hardly professional which is where my post stemmed from.

The hub is like a saturday braai amongst friends.. occasionally someone brings along an idiot to the braai.

 

Also we are pretty good at raising funds for some in need.

[Blackbeard]

There we go there are two separate anti doping forms where I declared the use

On both the forms you indicated in parenthesis that that you have a TUE which you knew is not the case.
