Rather than start a new thread...
http://www.cyclingnews.com/news/uci-...g-accusations/ Wonder if Sparty's 2010 Ronde and Roubaix bikes are available for inspection? Greg

So Gaimon watched it on tv, and declares " that f****r probably had a motor". Won't Gaimon just please go away. It feels like he's written more books than Protour races ridden.

^this.
Also, this entire discussion (anywhere, not just this particular thread) makes me think of the movie 23. You can find anything you look hard enough for - whether it's real or not. It's crazy how many people ride bikes and still have no understanding of momentum/inertia

Bwahahaha! Man needs to know his limitations. Gaimon is a climber, not a rouleur like Cancellara or Boonen. At best he would be a domestic. Maybe he needs to eat more cookies? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

The point is not that he personally feels robbed of that win, it's that the culture of doping and cheating creates an environment where the riders that are trying to do it clean struggle to even hang on. It's part of what created the pressure for many riders to dope in the first place. Phil left the game rather than cheat. His book and the worst retirement ever project calls attention to the issues that have plagued, and will continue to be pervasive in Cycling. Phil feels as bad for all the other guys that were working their buts off just to get robbed of results, or lose contracts, because the other guys around them were on juice. Personally, I think his experience in the pro-peloton gives him the right to call BS if he so chooses. It helps keep the discussion alive. Cycling is far from reformed and we shouldn't be complacent.

To be frank, we don't know what he has or has not seen during his time in the peloton. Also he wasn't the one who put Fabians move into question - he's recovering what has been claimed and implicated by others. People don't want to think that their cycling idols were cheaters. We need to get over it. Chances are, anyone who was at the tip of the spear over the last 15 years had some questionable help getting there. Phil is one rider that isn't afraid to sling some feeces over it and keep the conversation going. Sticking our heads in the sand and hoping it will get better wont fix anything.
