  • Thanks for posting.

  • Excellent documentary (and great narration by Bernard Hill). Thanks for uploading,

  • @bikegirl2 hahaha as if :L I race and my only drug is the bike

  • @Calengela yea right mate, any one remotely in to racing does drugs

  • @bikegirl2 You shouldn't take drugs full stop, it will proper fuck you up.

  • @OldMrMegaDrive i never even took drugs till i got in to cycling. Every one i know involved in cycling takes drugs.

  • @bikegirl2

    Professional sports people agree to compete without performance enhancing drugs. I believe there should be proportionate penalties for breaking that agreement - particularly if significant advantage was gained over non-cheats. Athletes are role models subject to rules and laws.

    Desperation and pressures may drive certain personalities to cheat, but consequences can be disastrous to cheats, friends, and family. I do not accept that "drugs and bikes go together" necessarily.

  • @OldMrMegaDrive drugs and bikes just go together dont u get that

  • RIP

    If that's true, I don't understand why the pro's closed ranks and stone-walled questions. Simpson was one and has his apologists, but I think he was a poor role model if the ruling body for cycling banned the substances he and others were using at the time.
