    From my understanding. Everyone who ratted on Lance for taking drugs knew about it cause they were also taking them. Which leads me to believe all cyclists do it. If everyone is doing it than it was an even playing field in which Lance won. Give that man back his titles. :-D

      At what point does a doper become an unreliable witness? That is the question that occurs to me.

            Ok, I realize that biker refers to people on motorobikes, so what do you guys call yourself?

              Cycling will survive, but for me the film Dodgeball has been ruined. What do they do now, re-shoot, re-edit, just let the film quietly die?

              I think DodgeBall can hold up, because not only did he refer to his cycling career, but also to surviving his TC, as I recall, so there :wtf:

                  I note that you are a keen cyclist. What sort of drugs are you on then?

                        As I am replying to a comment that only says 'Cyclist', am I a re:cyclist, just recycling old jokes, or peddling rubbish?

                          No one thought to bring it up after the first or second Tour de France, but after he retires?! Thanks for the link.

                            Lance has been hounded for years and years. It's just hit the point where enough people came out and put their hand up that it's all happening now.
