I thought his comeback ride after that bad day in the mountains was just too good to be true, I had never seen something that extreme in the sport.. he looked dead and buried one day and was as fit as a flea the other.. I Like the man, its a good story but.. its really is a shame

Something smells bad.
Testosterone levels high COMPARED to another one of its forms.
Testosterone is made naturally... Maybe these dopers are way ahead of the curve but I dont get it for Bikers. Would have had to have been done way ahead of time. This is not over. There must be more or he is getting screwed. I will wait on this one. It does not make sense from what I have tried to understand about testosterone in this particular endurance sport.

i used to have a license to race back in the teenage days before i realized that most of the men in the game have no attraction to the ladies. then i just started to bike as a tourist. Cycling is all respiration, and it is the closest thing to horse racing as far as sports go. as a cyclist you know what it means "to ask your legs for a response" either there is one or there is not depending upon the lactic acid remaining in the legs form the last time you asked. the same can br transferred to a horse, they ask for a response in the lane, and either they get on or they don't. his trip tothe mountains was extra ordinary. in my mind i feel he injected himself. he didn't care. he wanted to win and did what he needed to do to win, cheat: just like barry "soon to be out on" bonds. for him to make up that much time in the mountains is not normal. i doubt if eddie mercx or bernard hinault himself could have achieved that.
