It is interesting that the 'comments' on INRNG's blog tend to be self-policing in this regard.

I dunno - since pointless doping discussion is going to take place anyway, I think it would be a bloody terrific idea to have it all take place in one thread rather than polluting all other threads.

I think there should be a sub-forum for doping talk. I think it is interesting and relevant, but the people really obsessed with the topic try to inject it into too many other threads where it takes over.

As a cyclist, I can say I absolutely do not use PEDs.
Except for crank....I'm all about the crank.

Yes I like that about CN. I think it needs to be instituted here. No doping talk unless it's in a designated sub forum.
Any mods around listening?

Interesting. Not a complete ban, impractical and real hard to enforce but a subforum? I'm not an admin but I'll raise the idea.

Since we're on the bandwagon of whining about what can and can't be discussed, can we have a Lance Armstrong Obsessed sub forum as well? I mean, considering there's like 3 or 4 topics discussing the same thing, and is brought up into most other threads.

Tom Danielson tests positive for testosterone. Will sit out Tour of Utah. B sample hasn't been tested yet. He says he'll have his supplements tested, has no idea how this result could have happened.

In those multi-week tours I'm sure there is a lot of "limp as a wet dishrag syndrome." So there probably is some use of an enhancer for the extracurricular activities.
