    So essentially none of them has done anything that isn't legislated for on their UCI file as either a documented condition or TUE? Looks like we can put gazetta down for the first shot in the doping scandal season between now and the start of Le Tour.

  • Unless they find synthetic testosterone in Mayo's counteranalysis, there is convenient excuses for all.

    TUEs for salbutamol are a joke.

    Why are TUES for salbutamol a joke?

    Warning about well known bike shop removed at request of moderators.

    it's a hard life if you don't weaken.
  • Because about 75% of the peloton have them. I doubt there are that many world class cyclist asthmatics.

    In the population I would say less than 20% are asthma sufferers and of those that are only about 20% of them will use Salbutamol.

    I admit it isn't a very funny joke. You had to be there.

    <font face="Tahoma"></font id="Tahoma">I've always thought that for a fit bunch of people, they do have a high percentage of asthma suffers. But, could this be caused by long hours on roads breathing in car fumes?

    Or do they just ask a nice doctor to say they have asthma as they know salbutamol can help them ride fast? [V]

    Ah, I didn't realised it could be used as a masking agent. If that's true does that mean 75% of people are doping? If so that's lower than I thought.

    Isn't it used as a masking agent for some PED or other too ?
  • From cyclingnews:

    "Matxin noted the existence of a certificate from the UCI that confirms the Spaniard naturally produces high values of exogenous testosterone"

    WTF!!!??? How can you produce exogenous T naturally???

    Typo is what journos use to enable them to write quicker and longer.
