Hi all, I've just ridden my first event of this kind - and it was local to me in the UK! The event was a 100mile ride taking in many of the favourite cycling...
Hi, I'd like to ride Marmotte or another such race next year (next year I'll move to easier cat E). I have chceked sportcommunication.com, but I can't find any...
Sportcomm... does not keep its results on the site for very long, just a few months. You might find older results on dutch websites. Maybe Oege Hiddema would ...

Hi Francois, ... I noticed, and suggest we all protest. I can understand organisations having a similar policy to hide their internal misdoings, but race ...

-55' is also my forecast, by Mayo (if no wind) why? 1999 was just after ... 1998, pharmacists were still scratching their head. Remember Charly Gaul did not...

... Not exactly sure what you mean., Francois. Yes I remember 1998 as the big EPO scandal. Are you saying they didn't know how Vaughters could go so fast w/o ...
... Oh. I forgot. I'm being thick-headed I know. So you're opining that drug use is on the increase again? Karol ============================== Karol E....
OK I'll be more explicit. In 1999, climbing performances were down quite a bit compared to 91-98 period. That does not mean racers were totally clean, but at...
