Astonishingly sensible discussion of dealing with doping
http://www.cyclingnews.com/blogs/rob...nd-retribution
I know such things (sensible discussion, that is) don't really have any place on RBR, but I found the above link an astonishingly sensible discussion of dealing with doping. I don't mean /just/ the original article, which was good, but, wonder of wonders, the comments after it. In place of the usual yahoo comments, there were many good points, not the least of which were several writers respectfully calling out Millar to do the "owning up" that he calls on others to do.

Yeah it was good. As some of the comments pointed out EPO wasn't available during Millar's era so there is much less to fess-up to. The point being that if other drugs are dynamite EPO is a thermo-nuclear munition. |

During his prime years of 87-91 when EPO was not used or was only *just* becoming available I think it's very unlikely he was using it. It's possible he was an very early adopter I suppose but I'd be amazed personally if he was. |
