    That's been an oddity of the kenacort debate - as the scientists deny that the sort of effect that Millar describes as attributable to kenacort.

    Don't get me wrong, Millar is an important voice in the doping narrative and should be listened to - but I can't help worry that this info is somehow flawed through the impact of the passage of time or misinformation.

    Apply to become a GMS writer by signing up and submitting a 250-word test article
    Should apply, the bar is evidently quite low

    EDIT: the OP is in fact objectively wrong, as there is no current meaning of the word "good" that can be applied to that article.

    The OP doesn't care if the article is good or not, the title is the really the discussion point

    I assume the 'lest we forget' means let's dig this back up as it appears no-one is having a go at Wiggins any more and no-one who actually matters (i.e. the ADAs and UCI) feel there's a case to be answered.

    And here was me naively thinking the thread might be about the centenary of the WWI armistice. Should have known.

    Which part isn't true? I presume the former, cos someone is always having a pop, of course. Though I did chuckle when Bitter Kimmage was having a go at Froome after the Giro and used Wiggins a point of credibility to compare him against.

    But the latter, you'll have to expand.

    Haha i missed that interview.

    re the second point there are some on here who condone wiggins possible abuse of TUE and lack of evidence through data loss and consider it all fair game. Rich for example has shown quite a pro ped stance in the recent past. but the real point was something for the but kenacort isnt performance enhancing so not cheating posters to consider. i.e. that Millar a drug cheat used Kenacort and found it was useful. Wiggins of course has never been done for PED use and only used it to "bring himself up to the level of others"

    Sorry, you'll have to clarify where rules were broken. Actual proof/rules rather than speculation.

    I knew it wouldn't be, but wondered what it was and curiosity got the better of me. I thought maybe it was about an incident in which a few people died or something.

    Well Michael Golas’ parents are keen to retrieve the sunglasses he was wearing on the day he died on the way to Roubaix.
