Hope thats not directed at me. Ive admitted my own hypocricy many many times. In fact i've written a 2 page article about my Contador hypocricy. Just at the time you and others got so up tight about the Sky thing...0 -

Riis admitting in 07? Once he was clear of statute of limitations, or course0 -
I'm sure BBC 4 will be showing all of these televised confessions on Saturday nights when the current season of Borgen ends.0

All this t&r stuff and general 90s revelations are going to cast a long long shadow over this season0

Speak for yourself. I will watch the racing with the same passion and interest as always. Looking forward to this season a lot. Peaking with Contador handing Sky so much panache and defeat they can sell it and retire on the proceeds.Contador is the Greatest0 -

in my black and white world, I would like him to tell and then fark off out of cycling0 -
Rasmussen will not be a very popular man among his colleagues. Tearing everyone up who is still protected by the omerta.

Lars? Matti? Jakob? Markov?
Other than that don't think there is anyone worthwhile currently riding.
Imagine if it was Magnus.Contador is the Greatest0 -

How ridiculous! at 6'5" and 95kg myself I know without a shadow of a doubt how easy it would be to compete at the highest level of cycling without doping :shock:0 -

Frenchie, you're going to have to brush up on the composition of those 'dirty Scandi' countries...0 -
I'm pretty sure it's Nicki.
Only one to have ridden with Michael.0 -
Probably someone like Jesper Skibby, just to keep the whole '80s / 90s vibe going.
or Alex Rasmussen to tell us the real reason he missed all those tests.'This week I 'ave been mostly been climbing like Basso - Shirley Basso.'0 -
Yeah but you said there were two Thom.Contador is the Greatest0
-
If Alex has ever doped he would be considered the worst doper in history. Nah, Alex is just a lazy, stupid guy.0

Rasmussen + another rider (most likely Nicki). If anyone, that is.0 -
If it is Nicki, Saxo-Tinki will probably give him a pay rise and promote him to GM0
