    Only 3 of them.

    I'm not sure that's how it works...

    It definitely works the way Blazing said though!

    This lightweight debate comes up often and I am not going to continue it again.
    Simoni is a champianisimo. He can't even spell Cocaine.
    Now, give me my ball back, as I'm not playing with you lot.

    Well, if I'd to pick anyone on the forum as Lance in disguise, it wouldn't have been you. I'm amazed.

    I think it really is excellent that pro cycling has something as serious and well maintained as this. Another reason why this sport leaves all others for dead.

    Well pretty obviously because you suggested football would be your new alternative to cycling, so Wicked made the obvious point that no sport is free of cheats.

    Numpty? A little self examination might help.............

    FF, this is one of those times I completely agree with you.

    However, your new avatar - I think you're 'passing-off' Blazing Saddles - you now look the same. You need to change. Be the first to properly jump on the Sagan bandwagon. He's your sort of rider,

    Some riders have been caught doping, but we are still left with the situation that 'big names' aren't caught and are protected.

    An Italian favourite for the Giro - small fry. Where are the big names? The UCI are covering everything up as usual.

    So assuming the worst can this effect last year's Giro results? (again!)

    It must be gutting to retrospectively get promoted, for example, to a podium or one of the GT shirts but to have missed out on the special moment of the podium ceremony.Forget the endorsements, no amount of money can get that back.
