Doping Still Out of Control

GI and blood problems? How about the simple explanation that these guys
are so far out onto the ragged edge of trained athleticism that they are
constantly flirting with overtraining, unhealthily low body fat, and the
general fatigue from repeatedly pushing their bodies to maximal efforts
over the course of races and the season.

I agree...even normal people who don;t ride bikes everyday find it
difficult to go a month without a slight medical problem...I think we
all have some problem once every 3 months or so...In a race that problem
is magnified many fold. I mean even if you ride or work out every day
there are some days that you have to skip or can;t work as hard. That is
what you see in the peloton. I don;t mean there isn;t doping, but people
getting sick isn;t evidence of it.

Very true, wonder where ESMD practices, I'll try to avoid that area.

Why don't you try trolling elsewhere? Exactly what "blood problems"
have you heard about? As for gastro-intestinal problems - exactly what
would you expect of people who normally exist on 2500 calories a day
burning and consuming over 10,000 calories a day during the Tour? All
of these riders are being re-hydrated intravenously and that is asking
for the occasional infection.

Hell, the wonder is that any rider can survive the Tour at the speeds
they do it these days.

Diagnosing over the internet is a dangerous game to play.

It surely takes two Belgian team doctors and assorted other medical
professionals to do that.
