It was easy then, especially when the UCI wasn't too keen on rigour, but is it easy now? I've not the faintest idea. As for the idea that altitude training camps are iffy, then all endurance sports...

On the contrary, I know very little. I simply ask questions of those who make unsubstantiated claims about it being obvious that Sky are doping. It is entirely possible that British Cycling, the...

Ye gods and little fishes! Don't you know anything? Everyone turns carbs into energy at the cellular level. As for using gels, they're designed for use towards the end of an event because they are...
