Agent Orenge Posted June 10, 2008 Share Excellent, hope hat you have good weather. We have been doing some serious nightriding to Malmesbury of late. Trying to get some training rides in for the Rockies. i will be in Austria next week riding a 164km road race called the Drei Eiland Giro. It is our company sponsored race. Holy Roller just mentioned that beer of theirs in Belgium.HOEGAARTEN. it is a "WHITE BEER" no racist pun. Have a few of those for me, they do it in a 640ml bottle. What a great way to finish a training ride with a large ice cold Hoegaarten they are near impossible to get in CApe TOWN, one or 2 places in JHB do have it.

Domestiquehated Posted June 10, 2008 Share talking of godiva here's a joke: what's the difference between lady godiva and looking for a golf ball? one's a hunt of a course. HR, not being picky, but I think "hunt oN a course" would make more sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like some pressure on me to do the 165km rather than the 110km route at the GF Eddy Merckx on Saturday?! Too much climbing at 4000m, so I will do the 110k.

jabbathemutt007 Posted June 10, 2008 Share If the test is positive then Boonen is history for 2 years' date=' plus the potential ethical ban of a further 2 years (although he could go to Liquigas). [/quote'] The protour is history so the "extra" two years don't really matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubsy Posted June 10, 2008 Share If i had to train like those guys, i'd also take Bolivian Marching Powder. Just float up the hills... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Boonen did cocaine its probably recreational like Ullrich (and that women tennis player, I've forgotten which one as I'm not much into tennis) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest colonel Posted June 10, 2008 Share why would they have tested him for cocaine in any case instead of the true performance enhancing stuff like EPO' date=' steroids or testosterone?i am sure they dont just draw blood and test for about 100 substances with cocaine being one of them?to what performance enhancing benefit is cocaine in any case? does it mask the pain?just find it strange for someone to do an out of competition test and then test for cocaine that i am sure does not stay in our body long enough to have any affect come race day.[/quote'] It stays in your system up to 5-7 days.

Flemish Lion Posted June 10, 2008 Share You guys are fast to jump to conclusions... let's wait for some more info... Some add news:Boonen hoeft in principe niet meteen voor een sportieve schorsing te vrezen. Het gebruik van coca?ne buiten competitie is immers niet strafbaar voor wielrenners Strafrechterlijk kan Boonen natuurlijk vervolgd worden. I can only assume he struggled with his superstar status and cocaine is then an easy way out... Oh and lock up your children next time I go cycling with any of you Hoegaarden is my favorite too...
