i have been looking through bikeradar at pictures from recent events and noticed on one particular event, the winner of said event is sporting a "big smile" which makes me think hes on Viagra, although i have no proof and it wouldnt seem right to name him. am i the only one who noticed it?

its on the monitored list for 2009Monitoring Program
WADA, in consultation with Signatories and
governments, shall establish a monitoring program
regarding substances which are not on the Prohibited
List, but which WADA wishes to monitor in order to
detect patterns of misuse in sport. WADA shall publish,
in advance of any Testing, the substances that will be
monitored. Laboratories will report the instances of
reported Use or detected presence of these substances
to WADA periodically on an aggregate basis by sport
and whether the Samples were collected In-
Competition or Out–of-Competition. Such reports shall
not contain additional information regarding specific
Samples. WADA shall make available to International
Federations and National Anti-Doping Organizations,
on at least an annual basis, aggregate statistical
information by sport regarding the additional
substances. WADA shall implement measures to
ensure that strict anonymity of individual Athletes is
maintained with respect to such reports. The reported
Use or detected presence of a monitored substance
shall not constitute an anti-doping rule violation.
from what i have read - alot of people expect it to be added to the prohibited list in 2010.0 -
the picture of the rider was taken during the event and not after it, ill give you a clue the competition was held on 11/12 october and i think hes from preston wheelers.
theres no proof that hes on viagra but you could say my suspicions were were raised0 -

Wouldnt this rushing of blood to, er, non-vital (for racing) areas mean a net loss of blood for the vital racing muscles? (although maybe some of us have more need to worry than others )0

Surely even victory doesn't make up for the embarrassment of having a boner in lycra?Legs, lungs and lycra.
