Radio 5 said this morning that the USADA won a court case to confirm they have autorisation to strip him of his titles back to 1998.


They will probably then go down the pecking order to the guy who came 113th, to get the first clean cyclist.


Personally I'm suspicious of any cyclist who wins the Tour de France. I have my doubts whether its possible to win it "clean".

I like Bradley. I hope he is clean. I'm suspicious of the whole Tour.

If you scroll to the bottom of ther attached link, it has a table of the results of 1998-2012 Tour with colour coding for the doping charges. White is clean, there are few in the top 10 over the years who are still considered clean and most of the winners are doping, and with Lance Armstrong now sure to be coloured in, its clear its a very difficult race to make the top 10 without "help".


Its unwise to have blind faith in any winner of the Tour IMO.

    • I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA! 
    • "You have no idea why"   To be fair Sue, it's blindingly obvious to anyone who has a conversation with anyone who isn't a Corbyn supporter. And even some who liked Corbyn (like me initially) found him somewhat flaky even at his most popular But let's say you are right and I have NO idea why anybody might not vote for him. They still didn't vote for him. He lost two elections. The second one badly (and strongly predicted but the stubborn old goat wouldn't budge so we we were stuck with Johnson and another 3 million PMs in the 5 years that followed) So even with ZERO evidence, we have our eyes and ears and brains But we do have evidence   https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/27022-their-own-words-why-voters-abandoned-labour
    • As I said, it was my understanding. I worded it very carefully. I didn't/don't know for sure, so clearly not a fact. And hardly an "opinion", which is something completely different. You have no idea what reason anybody might have had for not voting for him (unless you can point to some opinion poll results which actually asked people?)
