  People have been mis-educated from K-12 schooling on a fictional idea of a two-party humanity, but that science is not reality-based. Resistance to difference in sport reveals a flawed elitist ideology based on that fiction, which erroneously informs the rules of fair play. Until the humanity standards are changed, professional sport may itself remain flawed. Chapeau to Philipa York for her efforts and for sharing her story. Can't wait to read more.

  The understanding and management of recovery and performance physiology has advanced - even since Dumoulin.

  It would have been also interesting to find out Dumoulin's opinion in this regard about Pog doing Giro and the Tour last year, especially considering that, powerwise, Pog's best results came during the last third of the Tour.

  Friendly = raising white flag? Wow, I never know that. /s I don't know why he complained about the way Vingo raced. That was one of the most aggressive version of Vingo. He attacked on the a sprint stage and went all out of the hilly stages, albeit not being able to beat Pogi there. How is that considered raising white flag?

  Pidcock has always come across as arrogant and not particularly smart. I’m not surprised that he, his team, and their sponsor would do something like this—and to top it off, they released the video on the anniversary of Gino’s tragic death.

  It's okay, Chris Froome rumoured 5 mil euro per annum contract comes to an end this year🤞. I doubt anyone wants to sign him as a rider with that salary bracket. I'll be surprised that he still want to ride for another year for anything lesser.

  Jan Christen? Is that guy a team player? Why would you bring in a domestique who doesn't follow the team tactics to the biggest race of the year?

  If you patronise in the wrong way, you are encouraging people to do whatever it takes, yes. If you throw your money at sport so that money becomes the prime driver for performance, it encourages more cheating, yes. It’s unfortunate but it IS part of the consequences. There are ways to follow the sport without money concentrating where it shouldn’t, just like there are ways and choices for consuming any product. It’s of course an extreme argument, nonetheless, if you want to prevent things going wrong, you need to look ahead to see how that might happen. That includes, how to deal with ideas like One Cycling, Enhanced events. I would guess that cycling took doping a bit more serious after Uknowletsnotnamehim is because they saw the whole story (mediaworthy and ironically therefor potentially money-making) as capable of turning away audiences and probably it did, had it not, they might have just swallowed and waited.

  More like keyboard police, judge and jury. Next he’ll be telling French people to write Putin and not Poutine ;-)

  Happy you got that out?
