I know I could, but why should I be required to do so is my question? I am not an athlete I am a funrider.

Make up your mind will you! Racer or funrider?

There's actually a name or a medical condition for being shy in front of others.....None the less.....

To be fair it is only 2 okes that are causing *** - the rest are completely in favour of what he is saying.

Ja and some of those are pretty well known in riding circles. So it shows theres some strong support behind him. 

 

Arguably Gawie could have worded it differently but the oke speaks from the heart. And that speaks to a sense of integrity beyond much of what has been spoken lately. Good on him.

Who is the Bruce Malele guy?

 

I have to agree with Gawie and brave of him to voice his opinion [emoji106][emoji106]

 

Been seeing some SA athletes in different sports that are popping out from avg to elite in a year.Hope there won’t be many more + results.

It's great that the anti-doping agencies are so busy and they are doing good work for the most part, however, can't help but wonder whether it was worth all the effort to change the ban from 10 years to a lifetime ban. Not much difference between the two IMHO. 

[Underachiever]

I would be rather proud if they tested me.

Would ask for a framed copy of the result. 

Where's that tip-off number.....

I would love to the do Epic or sani, but to be honest I dont feel like becomming a medical expert or run the risk of taking something and inadvertantly get tested and then you are "dopper" on the hub.

 

I have a job, ride bikes for fun an nothing else. Dont see why I now need to say to my Doc sorry I can not take that for my hay fever etc. Just because I am going to  ride Epic in a weeks time?

 

And there is a good chance that if I dont take whatever the doc wants to give me that I will not even make it to start line of said race?

Simple, you don’t HAVE to take anything or be a medical expert.

I want to know why lots of cyclists who had been caught, don't want to tell who or where did they get drugs from?  

 

I feel they must be banned for life, unless they tell us, how or what happened. 

[eddy]

So mistakes were made, things you wish you had done differently and things are regretted. 

 

If you trully regret them JB, why not tell us what these mistakes were, how you had done things and how you should have done things differently ?

 

Instead you take a technical point around jurisdiction and maintain that you are a victim unfairly persecuted by the authority that prosecuted you.

 

I have one with bells on for you to pull.
