It's more a case of reading something and thinking "they did fecking WHAT!?" and re-reading it just to make sure I got it right.
You've obviously never read any Hunter S Thompson.
Actually, it could have been sub-titled "Fear and Loathing in the Peloton"

Here's an interesting one for the fanboys, who rubbished Bassons as a bitter no-hoper - Lance frequently claimed he was so much better than ebveryone else due to his especially high VO2 max, yet Hamilton details that Bassons had a higher VO2 max than Armstrong. Go figure that one...

I am also now of the opinion that Sastre deffo doped, given the level and extent of it at CSC. Not named by Hamilton but he was co-leader at CSC and, although I may joining the dots outta sequence, I reckon all the circumstances lead me to the conclusion that he doped - I had previously thought he might have been clean. Oh well, the last clean Tour winner must be Greg after all...

I don't know if you saw the list of the fastest ever times up A d'Huez last week but Sastre was pretty high on the list. Well under 40 minutes and ahead of some times by Kloden, Mayo and Riis.

What do you think about Cancellara ? There seem like there could have been a hell of a lot of dodgy practices on the teams he was on.
