The Fuentes Connection

[KinKyJ]

So Basso is the first one who cracks in the doping case of Dr. Fuentes. Who's next? Ullrich?

I don't know, these days I can't help asking myself if the winner of a race is or isn't on doping. So yeah, Tom Boonen is atm the best cyclist worldwide, but I can't really say I care that he's Belgian. I mean c'mon, what a slap in the face is it when the guy you think is the champ, is in fact the cheater?

Hell of a way to completely destroy the image of a sport...

Bjarne Riis and Erik Zabel have admitted that they used doping too. What a fake sport.

Actually, I've been following the sport since '84. Toured with teams and followed the sort with amateur and semi-pro levels in the US and in Europe. Also, met many of the greats in MTB racing back in the late 80s through mid 90s.
