‘Didn’t’…

I read a medical report that showed that the use of some supplements didn’t provide enough of a boost to make it worth doing it. Interesting, never heard of it before, but why would I, report by the USADA on Armstrong and his and their actions to hide the illegal drug use.

And EPO does not help with performance.

So maybe the joke here is the reliance on illegal drugs and the felling of being a ‘bad boy’ helped him more than the drugs themselves. Well, joke or irony…

Fully agree on the efficacy of EPO being (mostly) disproven. However, I believe Armstrong was also on a pretty heavy steroid regimen and blood doping, both of which do impact performance. Saying ‘all the doping LA did did not give him a boost’ is not correct.

Also, just a note - quoting Phil Liggett as a source is not at all meaningful. Your other two links are solid though :slight_smile:

Only post I’ll make on this thread about it - happy to discuss in a more appropriate thread

After I got new glasses, first time in trifocals! Wondered if that was what LSD felt like.

There are not enough thumbs up for this one. It’s been an exceptionally cold and wet spring, even by New England standards.

OMG! Or it looks beautiful out, but the winds are 35mph+. It’s been really severely windy here some days. Some people like to ride in that, but I’ll stay inside and suffer in private.
