    Can't translate it on my phone, but I'm sure ullrich has insinuated as much.

    It's nothing too new.

    To paraphrase - my generation did lots of bad things. (re doping).

    I made mistakes, but I've also paid for them.

    I've put the depression, the problems with my body, and years of struggle behind me.

    We should make sure this generation doesn't make the mistakes my generation did.

    Given my experience on the road as a professional, this blog is here to share my experience (though obviously not about doping).

    Didn't he say exactly the same thing in his book about 3 years ago?
    "In many ways, my story was that of a raging, Christ-like figure who hauled himself off the cross, looked up at the Romans with blood in his eyes and said 'My turn, sock cookers'"

    Yup but there's a GT on. That means a whole new audience for old stories

    Beer is an appropriate rehydration substance.

    I can vouch that it's actually pretty good too, i did nt realise it was alcohol free until I looked at the glass (t'was pushed into my hands by a particularly nice Fraulien after a MTB marathon)

    Stephen Fry concurs: on QI he said you can rehydrate with up to two beers. Therefore it must be fact.

    Hmmm.. Will look into that.

    Often the alcohol in beer puts me off - not because of calories but because I'm a massive lightweight and booze doesn't sit very well with me. It's a shame because I love a beer or two with food ,but I always feel it.
