Patchelicious Posted December 26, 2016 Share I compare it to cheating spouses. Not everyone agrees with the cheater. Does all his friends suddenly leave him alone? Some do so don't. Does his spouse forgive him? Some do some don't. Personally I think cheating on your spouse is much worse. You should not be allowed to have any relationship again. I think you should wear a 'I am a cheating knob' sign around your neck. But it is not for me to decide. At least cycling have got rules.At least cheating spouses usually apologize for their naughtiness.

Long Wheel Base Posted December 26, 2016 Share Has James been suspected of doping? ( Just asking I seriously don't know) BTW thats me in the second pic in the article(where James won the SA cup) with the yellow t-shirt ( I look A little funny but gimme a break)Not that I know of. This is a big surprise to me. He didn't hold much back in that interview about what he thinks. I got the impression he is just gatvol. I think unless you either have BIG sponsors or come from serious money you just can't make it abroad and unfortunately a local pro will never really get far in life. Such a pity, we have some very good riders in this country but unless they basically leave the country for 90% of the year to race overseas full time they will get no where. If only they had the backing from the powers that be. Sent from my LG-H735 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geronimo Posted December 26, 2016 Share So we should invite guys like Lance back with open arms?How many kids/people started cycling because of him and how many cyclists took to doping because of him ? Probably 10 000 to 1. I'm not ok with doping but look at the bigger picture. Jaco-fiets 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jewbacca Posted July 20, 2018 Share Also, who is supplying these guys? I know there is a certain Mr Tom Hank's best friend in Castaway that openly claims to supply half of the Epic field with PED but nothing ever seems to happen to him. I seem to recall the same guy allegedly beat up his wife. If he so openly admits to supplying, why is he not being held legally accountable? Or is it not illegal to supply PEDs?

Andymann Posted July 20, 2018 Share I often wondered about him - he used to date a friend of ours when he was still a soccer player and when he retired he suddenly appeared on the Cycling scene with some pretty good results. I figured he was just one of those naturally gifted athletes. Eldron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gen Posted July 20, 2018 Share .Why on earth would SAIDS only give him 6 month ban for testosterone.... glad WADA appealed that one and CAS gave him the full 4 years. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Edited July 20, 2018 by Gen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G950F using TapatalkIf the athletes are to be believed the product they took was tainted. Tests on Biogen's Testoforce found the same T as WADA found in their system.
