You find that it's mostly vets with racing licenses?

Jip.

No need to test the funriders. 

 

Personally I think even testing licensed Vets is a waste of money (R3000 per test if I remember?)

If you catch a guy cheating on his home budget......Hahahahhahaha.  Dumb ass. 

If you catch an accountant cheating the co. books.....bad boy.....jail time....worth the audit cost

 

If a doctor gives himself the wrong medicine....dumbass......might get killed.

If a doctor gives his patients wrong medicine.......bad boy.

 

You get the picture.

 

Personally I would take away all Vets prizes.  Give them a bunch to race in.  Stroke the egos and have some fun to see who can kill who on the road.

 

But put the investment into the profession and focus on the racing Elite and U/23.  Rather spend budget on THEM and get them all on the blood passport program and test regularly and get them on the right path in order for the sport as a profession to grow and also get clean / stay clean.

 

But that is just me.....

They need to make doping a criminal offense  as it is in Italy- Remember the police arresting Festina at the TDF in 19??

 Ken now just sits back and says he is retired. IT IS FRAUD !

How many guys has he ridden out of a possible sponsorship? How much money did he earn as a pro cyclist. If he could be charged with fraud it would be a different ball game ;)

DO we test the overseas people that train in the country  

 

SAIDS can only test foreign athletes out of competition if their federation has given SAIDS permission to do so. WADA can test any athlete registered to a National Federation at any point. 

 

SAIDS can test who ever they like in competition, but according to CSA that is actually only when you are on your bike.

And David Millar cam out yesterday to say "This is the greatest ever generation of Grand Tour riders”

I get he's an advocate for anti doping but he's not exactly the cheers squad that I'd want giving me props. :)

Vets gets tested almost every race.  I have been tested a couple of times. 

 

Spidey, you and I must be doing different races. I've been racing sub-vets for five years. Been on the podium multiple times, even at SA champs, and I've only ever been tested once - at 94.7 one year. And that was just urine. So I think a vet who wanted to blood dope could do it without any fear of getting popped. 

 

But I agree with you; the money is better spent on testing the elites and u23.

The beauty in these threads is the self righteous hypocrisy.

Some act as if they are the finest genetic specimens and will never circumstances to illness.

Then there are those who hero worship. Their idols never dope nor their anti hero's all dope lol

 

What great entertainment

I am afraid you still have the cat by the hairy balls.....Sauser is not a hero of mine at all....but if it that makes you happy...have at it  :thumbup:

Oh and GLuvs said it so well  ;)

Nope.. only cycling names and shames.. the press is only interested in the cycling doping. .not at all interested in making a fuss about doping in RUGBY. . Never.. how could they possibly shine a light on the doping in not just high level rugby..but schools rugby.

 

So the skinder is that of the players in a 23 man high school first team squad if they had to be bust only 4 wouldn't serve bans.. I wish I knew more and not just skinder. . Cause I swear if i actually knew more I would most def give details to anti doping..

 

Maybe it should become my mission lol

 

I remember a while ago (maybe a couple of years) there was issues around school boy rugby and doping.

 

I heard (unconfirmed) its the institutions that was giving the kids the stuff to get better. Some of these stories came out of good schools where the parents have a lot of money to put the kids in so a few grand a month isn't a big expense, whether the parents know about it or now.

 

Chili boy (blou bulle) was banned a while ago for using a pre workout (i think it was the earlier versions of jack 3d can't remember) with banned stuff in it and he was kicked out of rugby for a while.

 

Found an article.

http://www.sport24.co.za/Rugby/Springboks/Chiliboy-handed-two-year-doping-ban-20150907

 

So no, its not just cycling, its just because you are interested in cycling that you read more about it.

All right. Let's keep the fight for those pesky cheats, dealers and spin doctor's.

Not sure what you are getting at raptor?

 

Bikehub threads would be pretty stale without opinions and people being judgmental? 

 

If it annoys you you can always stick to the classifieds?

 

Even the classifieds are annoying, and its not so much opinion that is annoying, but opinion that differs from your own that is annoying (or did I miss something?).

Some might disagree.

 

There have been over 30,000 hits on this thread, not bad for a thread filled with hypocritical people and uninteresting behavior.
