Jesse Hart: Hard Work-The Young Philadelphian Super Middleweight Son Of A Cyclone.

It is now because it was shown up to be a complete sham of a sport in the past decade.

When you had police catching team cars with trunks literally full of drugs, its hard to sweep under the carpet.

I remember reading about the first ever Irish competitor in the Tour back in the 50s.(Seamus Elliot)
He said even back then, they were told to take amphetamines in the morning to give them a boost. Then of course they had to take relaxants in the evening to help them sleep because of the amphetamine effects.

I know most pro sports have drug problems, but cycling seemed to be out on its own.

The evidence for Armstrong being on drugs had been around for about 10 years before he got caught, but no one wanted to touch it because he was the cash cow.

When you're beating guys by 10 minutes who are absolutely on drugs...somethings up.

 

Oh I wouldnt be shocked if Froome was on stuff too.

Thats the problem. I cant really watch cycling anymore without just assuming that they're all on something.

They create an event like the tour de france which is essentially impossible to compete in, unless you're on gear, and thats what happens.

They have to test rigorously now, because the sport lost literally all its credibility, and needs to gain it back.

 

Do you also go on cycling forums, aggregate videos and come up with gay nicknames for cyclists?
