2015 'PRO' cycling discussion

[djm]

I can't wait to see how JV responds. Maybe there was a relevant MBA class that will help him out.

Best post of the day!

Ted, is there a chance of a post from you that does not feature your son please? I come here for bike discussion and pictures of pros - not kids.

Thank you.

A-f'ing-men. Creepy shit.

Kwalker,

If you are so intereested in what we do and think that you can do it better, I´d love to make you moderator. Contact me if you still feel like it.

Now that's crazy talk. Please tell me you are kidding.

No time, but believe it or not I've succesfully modded a forum in the past without actually posting a single post! On this forum I just don't care because its (or it was at one point) bike tech geek talk and was more casual banter. That some people take way too much to heart.

"Early on, the team implemented a stringent doping policy that remains today. If a rider is caught doping, the whole team will be fired"


JV speaks, on Twitter:
@vaughters:
Selfishly, Id like to disappear, but that hurts quite a few good people. Therefore,Slipstream's owners(me too) have decided to push forward

What a surprise.. carry on

There are so many good tweets right now on TD. This one from Danny Pate is right up there.

Is there a bigger douche than JV? I think not.

JV is a joke, its the same old as to doping in cycling and all the other sports.
When confronted by the BBC about micro dosing the head of WADA responded by being shocked that the bio passport can be outsmarted. The head of WADA knows nothing about micro dosing

Your wit is too high. Maybe you should have your kid write some insults and then you can post about it all over the internet as if people care.

Did anyone ever expect a team to fold if there was a doping positive? I can see why that would have been the case with the crew they had back then, but most of their riders were not even pros when the original team was founded and have no connection to Tom D. Would be shitty to put them out of jobs.

and Danny Pate is an awesome, under-hyped rider. Guy has been a monster on the front of the peloton for years and an outspoken critic of many of cycling's dirtier riders. A more articulate and pointed version of Matt Cooke online.

Gents since it is easy to be insulted over the internet, can wel all please realize that we are just talking about cycling? A mere hobby in the sideline of other things that happen in the world.
