WOW, not only is he a doper, but he is fluent in skank to boot.No_Positives said:Some other recent roots...

An admission and a heart attack are positives in my book. Lance never admitted, never failed a test, and never died of a heart attack.limerickman said:and all four of them never failed a dope test - either, Saluki.
Armstrong tested positive for EPO six times in the 1999 Tour. He also tested positve for cortisone in the same race. He was cleared of the cortisone because he had a back dated TUE even though he previously swore he didn't have any TUEs.No_Positives said:An admission and a heart attack are positives in my book.

I just spoke with Lance. He said you can kiss his ass.Frigo's Luggage said:Armstrong tested positive for EPO six times in the 1999 Tour. He also tested positve for cortisone in the same race.

Once and for all, lets stop this nonsense about Armstrong never testing positive. You are simply being deceptive when you say these things.
cmon, wbt. I usually concur with many of your posts but when you delve into your anti-American bias, your points get blurred. I happen to live in a city with bike lanes and the drivers don't run me or others over. I also don't fear getting mugged unless I am in an area you probably see frequently broadcast on CNN as a typical American town. If I want a distorted view of America, I will watch that network or other major media networks. With all the violence they show, I'd be scared to leave home.whiteboytrash said:go to any city in the US and try and ride a bike through town.... if you don't get mugged you'll surely get hit by a agrro car driver who thinks they only belong on the road !
Its the mentality thats key here and British people know and understand cycling.
Wolf is right. I raced against him, interviewed him later on when I was a working journalist. He's not a well like dude by many. He was like the Armstrong of the states -- doping his way to many victories, winning in boring fashion and generally being pig. Many were glad to see him leave the North American circuit because he could not beat, but many just plain hated his ass.wolfix said:Horner is a tool.....

but back on topic, given the HUGE numbers that turned out in England, novelty can be responsible for merely a fraction of the amount that turned out. the majority were not driven by novelty alone.

On another note...What the hell is the topic this thead anyway ?

Well my friend I live in Tucson AZ and it is a fantastic city for cycling as are many places in the US. Here your facts are just not straight. I know you have a predisposition to be anti-American, and that's fine, but cycling is fantastic here.whiteboytrash said:hmmmmm are you sure ? What Lim was saying was "yes" it was a "one off" event but it was competing against F1 and Wimbledon which are bread and butter British sports. However it wasn't just successful it was amazingly successful and proved how cycling (its it has been getting huge promotion in the London and the UK) is a big sport....... you see cycling in the UK (unlike America which is in the hands of the petrol companies) is becoming bigger and bigger because governments see the importantance of cycling not just for fitness but for a transport strategy.... cycling in London is easy... there is almost a cycling lane where ever you go and cars will always yield for you... the fines for cars moving into cycle lanes and not giving way to a cyclists are huge... why does the government want this to work ? one is the environment and another is obesity (pressure on healthcare systems) and number one is getting cars off the road and people off public transport - its much cheaper than throwing more and more money into transport and more roads.... paris have recently done same with their free bike scheme (and don't even think of riding in paris until now).... go to any city in the US and try and ride a bike through town.... if you don't get mugged you'll surely get hit by a agrro car driver who thinks they only belong on the road !
