Yet, I do feel compassion also, for I am sure not everybody gets caught, and those who are truly clean do not have a chance of winning ever. The guy with the more sophisticated indedectable "drug" wins, that's the impression I am left with. And what injustice, figuring all the sacrifice those athletes have to go through. <BR/>While travelling, we stayed in a hotel where a Dutch speedskating team was training, really sweet girls and guys, sacrificing there summers indoors, day in, day out. You want them to win, to be able to win clean, that is.Merisihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16781937797213521146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27865852.post-84982499864186052072007-07-27T17:25:00.000-05:002007-07-27T17:25:00.000-05:00I've been so disappointed as well.

Every day when I tune in I expect to hear about more cheating.Dixiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03051120501450103612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27865852.post-25557838793012452012007-07-27T01:13:00.000-05:002007-07-27T01:13:00.000-05:00The tour came through the village next to ours las...The tour came through the village next to ours last year.

The whole cycling sport is a disgrace - good to know the bad guys are taken and should be left out for ever.<BR/><BR/>So you know I follow Tour de France too and up until now it has been fascinating - now I don't know anymore. Not only difficult to explain for the young once you know:-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
