The one person that I missed in all these discussion on drugs and doping etc. is Mr. Jerk. I don't mean to pull him into the sandpit against his will, but I'll be interested in hearing more from people who have raced in Europe and at a pretty high level back in the days.

Their perspectives are important to me. :D

PS. Until Jerk made that funny comment on a thread about Bjarne Riis, I thought he's been hiding from us.

jerk: no one sees this **** for what it is. lance armstrong pretty much admitted to organized doping within the peloton with his actions today. his act was ballsy, tough, vintage armstrong but it was essentially no different from a bunch of hematocrit sludge bloods sitting in the middle of the road protesting the festina affair back in '98. armstrong punked out simeoni because he's a snitch....lance's feel good nike image can't survice the truth that cycling is riddled with performance enhancing drugs. the jerk wishes he cared...but he's seen the underbelly of it and it is the least of proffessional cycling's worries.

e-richie: ... a true threat to the livlihood to lance and lance's peer group, n'est ce pas?

jerk: c'est vrai.
