[QUOTE="donner, post: 1939810, member: 277"] Go grab a copy of Tyler Hamilton's book. It's a quick read and very interesting. One of the interesting things is how most riders didn't think they were cheating since every rider who was actually in competition to win was doing it, to some degree or another. It also outlines the loopholes that existed for years thanks to the UCI's desire to make money. The parts on blood bag transfusions using a rider's own blood is also very interesting since it's almost impossible to prove. The fact that George Hincapie admitted to it is impressive to me. He is retiring and sanctions don't have much old over him anymore. I also find it hard to believe that every other rider, for what four tours (?), have been caught doping. Given some of lance's impressive performances i find it tough to believe that he was able to dominate so totally while surrounded by a bunch of dopers if he wasn't doping himself. Either way, i'm not very concerned about all this at this point. [/QUOTE]
