Tour News - More EPO Doping (Roadie Warning)
First off, those who aren't interested in the Tour, please refrain from regurgitating the old MTB vs Road debate. No one is forcing you to read this...
Just saw on the news that another rider, Riccardo Ricco aka the Cobra has been booted from the Tour (the 3rd in this year's Tour) and resulted in his team (Saunier Duval) withdrawing from the Tour altogether.
What I don't get is that EPO was/is one of the most widely known drugs in cycling and with the testing becoming almost foolproof, what possesses a pro to go down that road, knowing that everything is at stake?

Off road designs show the way....and make life in a chair more fun no doubt!

Lady Penrhyn drive.
Tentatively postponed until August 10
Ever wanted to wow your significant other with some shots of you riding?
When you last climbed that steep boulder did you ever wish that someone had a camera ready?
Ever wanted to get some action shots of some other riders without having worry about slowing the group?
On Saturday I'm planning to have a photography day at Red Hill. I want to get some action and artistic shots, not just of others but of me too.
Closer to the 40
First time trial since Easter. Pleased with shaving off a bit of time but still need to get under the elusive 40...
Wednesday Night Ride - St Ives / Cascades
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Terrey Hills Tavern
Getting bored with the same old night ride, need something new, well try our new and improved night ride with added sniggle and two hills for the price of one.
This ride is not for those new to MTB'ing or the unfit as it has some technical aspects and a few hills that will max out your ticker.
• We will proceed from the Tavern to the trail entrance past Forest Way.
• We will then take the "Epithany" trail to St Ives Showground.
• Cross over Mona Vale Rd to the Quarry Trail.
• (New and improved) - at the bottom we will turn left and climb the Health Trail.
