The tour the France this year is really interesting. Maybe interesting isn’t the right word… For sport fans it must be disappointing to not know anymore who’s clean and who isn’t. But as a bystander, it still fun to see.
Anyway, one has to start thinking if the tour isn’t simply to hard and too exhausting.
Another issue is the French press (especially L’Equipe). Year after year, due to the lack of good French riders, they pursue a witch hunt to find the boogie men amongst the “peleton”.
Without first getting their facts straight they give cycling an a bad name and harm people.
I’m not defending cheaters but one should start asking questions about the expected personal performance each one of them have to sustain for weeks at the time…
