I don't understand the friend of the channel thing (Riis). Could you explain again what that means in your next video? Tx for the entertainment.

2nd prize? Year's supply of Tramadol + Vimto?

@@Mike-rm1lb Its satire. He's being facetious.

@@Mike-rm1lb if I'm not mistaken Riis has openly referred to this channel and his disdain for it hence the reason why he refers to Riis as "friend of the channel"😂😂😂 🤘🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Is that the one with the hidden motor?

Financial profit matters primarily , greed is ubiquitous .

Amazing, you’ve created a theory where you will be right no matter what.

Must be that 2000w for 10mins or what were they joking about during the Belgian road trip 😂

Interesting. I was going to comment that 10 x 1.3 = 13, not 10.3 😂

i think the performance increase is only realized as in the case with tramadolito, after being seriously hurt and wanting to continue racing. back in the day that would be reason enough for a TUE.

it is never going to improve ftp by 10% or even 1% but if it takes away even a small amount of pain it will help hold high watts for longer

Probably you're right but i Will be like our friend Bjarne and i'll mantain the thing about 10%. Then, 11 yrs after, i Will told everybody i was wrong

@@cyclinghighlights aaaaalways the Danes lol

I agree. Our humble narrator is hilarious, makes the videos classic. His turn of phrase(s) is brilliant. Jonas is the Danish anchovy.

We not. We know Beloki, Heras, Ullrich, Pantani, Virenque, Birillo were doped.

@@cyclinghighlightsthat’s literally what he just said??

For sure. I remember watching Kuurne-Brussel-Kuurne earlier this year when at roughly 67 km until the finish Wout van Aert consumed some sort of tablet/pill. It could just have been a simple caffeine pill, but the pharmacokinetic profile (specifically time to peak plasma concentration) of tapentadol is more favourable than caffeine at that point in the race.

We'll Check them thanks!

No one at any of these channels seems to be starving. A few of them seem to be living the good life. Have eaten at McRaunchy lately it ain’t cheap.

I value any pros insight into a actual race. All the rest are fan boys.

It's putting something together, but often seems like all the important dots to join have to be found scraping stories from 10-30 years ago until a plausable story is fabricated, rather than a real story. I mean this video basically assumes because a team took painkillers then, they must be now to win, yet when they were known to be taking them last time, Lotto Jumbo were not even 10th best cycling team in the world so why would doing the same today be so much more effective?

you're gonna break the youtube algorithm with your sheer number of comments ;-)

@@davess61 I'm all over the place bro. Cycling channels are my main focus. It's my passion. You'll see me all over the place. To be honest, I like to turn people into their own research engine. People curse me out quite often but I simply say "don't take my word for it, do the research yourself" and some of them will eventually look into it. I'm just planting the seed and the more I may aggravate them, the more chance that the seed will be planted so I don't mind being a disruptor. If I piss them off they will remember me or the subject being discussed. It's a process to turn someone from believing their favourite athlete is clean to getting them to do their own research and once the research is done PROPERLY I truly believe they do t have an option bit to realise their favourite athlete is doped. I was a denier myself. I told everyone Froomey was clean and I decided I'm going to do some real research to prove them wrong😂. I was in denial. I ended up changing my whole perspective. Now I know "when it's too good to be true . . ." 🤘🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

@@SamHocking but the culture of cycling tells us that these connections are valid reasons to have concerns. The money involved in this sport is 10 times what it was in the 80s so that alone is reason enough for these riders and teams to do the dirty deed. Greed is very real and the culture of doping in this sport is unlike any other sport 🤘🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

@@davess61 I left another comment for you here that I don't see now. Do you see my response to your comment? 🤘🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

These doping stories ARE the sport….

Ask him to show proof of what he’s saying. He has accused all riders of doping never once showed any proof only accusations

Very true, but I don't see anyone suing for defamation of character any time soon😂

@@daniluis7777 lol

​@@stephenbradshaw9126 this channel could never be based in the UK. 😄

Yeah that comment suggests he is taking something that although legal, morally is very poor.

The politician slide, just like Armstrong, never tested positive.

But he also said he wasn’t taking anything he wouldn’t give to his daughter…

@@awake-notwoke6473the “legal” part being that it’s just not on the illegal list yet

@@toddpillow3074 I mean Tapentadol is not generally contraindicated for children so technically he's right.

No. The way this narrator rolls the R in Van Rysel is just perrrfect!

@@bobjackson3735 😁

Thank you very much again mate

Nope load of bollocks this. He thinks Lance Armstrong is not guilty.

Exercise produces lots of lactic acid which impairs muscle contractility. Sodium bicarbonate is thought to neutralise it. Common side effect is diarrhoea (Dumulin giro 2018 brown shorts)

Drinking water with baking soda reduces acid build up in your muscles and specifically the legs. But there is a percentage to use for each rider dependent on weight and they drink it at specific mileage along the route to have maximum effect.

I stopped watching their crap years ago, although I have to admit one or two were great presenters.

GCN is now trash - when Matt left I quit watching. Ollie is a jokej.

Same team. Not a prior sponsor. Was the sponsor. After PDM case a New dutch team was created Along 17 yrs. Some riders in the team rode in Rabobank and also some directors and assistants.

the fact that so many of the vampires from the past are still involved in the sport, would suggest it's as dirty as it ever was, sadly.

We made a lot of videos about those

Software needs a Cheshire accent and a sarcasm filter

Cadel Evans. The dude Who went to Ferrari's house only for talk about the weather.

Cycling always was a sport without problems in that aspect. Everyone knows very well

@@cyclinghighlights What is strange that no one with knowledge of what is going on + the guys from peleton never accused Pog of doping and they just saying that he was crazy good from young age but then when Jonas is mentioned no one wants to talk (except Visma guys)?! Maybe Jonas just developed later and has lungs of steel but to be fair it's strange nonetheless that he's become such a monster from 2022?

@@nazgulzg Yes it's weird how a a skinny small climber didn't achieve big results in a pancake flat country like Denmark when he was young.

Only said he didn't test positive in her teenage yrs like Skjelmose. Probably he was clean at teenage yrs.

@@draloalo Yeah, he never saw hill before 2021 let alone train on one?! He competed in mountains across europe since young age (2014). Jonas is almost 2 years older and his 1st races against Pog were in 2018. U23 - Tour de l'Avenir (Pog 1st, Jonas 67th - btw in that race 2nd place Arensman, 3rd Mader, 4th Vlasov, 7th Almeida, Foss, Gall, Zimmerman, Bagioli, Bjerg, Hirschi, McNulty etc. all finished above Jonas) and Grand Prix Priessnitz (Pog 1st, Jonas 5th).

You're waiting for the first TT? Dude you're almost a week too late 😂

So clever you are.

@@cyclinghighlights Even though im stating the obvious, i just said it because i know that there will be some pogacar fan out there saying: "GOod on you MAN, i already knew that vingegaard was dOPing Heheh, pogacar is the gOat for real".

No. This isn't a channel for fanboys.

And Sepp Kuss one would have to assume.

@@phatpurrly Yup

Dude, i only searched for Sorensen actual pictures. That Ritter is only a commentator.

cognitive dissonance

You dont watch many of his videos if you get butthurt anchovy was singled out in this one

He was in the always clean team of Legeay! Always!!

​@@cyclinghighlights😅😅😅😅😅

😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😭

I’ll go with his super high VO max levels.

Lemond doped.

Or a Brit

or an Italian, or a Dutch or a Spanish... or no, so historicly doping in cycling has not just been a few nations... you ruined the narrative of this video..

No dude. Vingegaard is clean

We have an email

the top riders gets tested every day

Somebody yep

@@cyclinghighlights What they think?

Don't like it

Oh a dane It's always a dane

I made it. Look at the video of Even Chris Froome Will Win with this bikes

Lance went after him to Girona So... something saw in him

No, no. Rolf lives nearly Lucca.

@@cyclinghighlights sorry, who is Rolf? I'm in danger of becoming confused

It's sarcastic because he rode for the ever clean (but doped) Legeay

@@cyclinghighlights But if he hadn't have met Van Mol in 89, he never would have had the chance to ride for Legeay.

And that really is the bottom line. A CIRC report in 201t said that as much as 90% of the pro peloton is doping on one level or another. I have the full 227 page report and it's quite an interesting read. I recommend reading it if you would like to educate yourself (I'm not saying you're not educated on the subject, I'm just saying that it's VERY informative) Cheers 🤘🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

@@kennykaniff I'd be very interested in how, pray, you think any rider would be able to pass tests with forbidden substances active in their body in this day and time. Not like UCI and the riders and obviously the sponsors have changed substantially since then.

@@kennykaniff No, it is not said. One unnamed "cycling professional" claims 90% without any substantiating evidence. That's pure speculation and smearing.

@@user-fo9bv2mm1g yes I'll give you that. It does say that but it also says many other things that backs that statement up I believe. Such as the culture and methods etc. It can't be denied that doping is STILL happening. That report was 2015 and here we are basically 10 years later and the methods and substances have only advanced. Doping is not difficult in this sport. One very simple method is micro dosing. There is no testing between 11pm and 6am. If a rider micro dosed EPO at 11pm he can test clean by 6am. If it is THAT simple then it goes to show how flawed the testing system is. Micro dosing EPO will give you 3-5% gains which in this day and age combined with many other things can be just like the old days of doping with EPO and getting 10% gains. Micro dosing is just one way. There are many other ways to get around testing and I'm still learning of these other methods. People put way too much credibility and faith in the testing. It's very rarely been the method in which riders get caught!! With new generations of EPO and new substances and cocktails around these days and the amount of money these riders and teams are willing to spend to get such Drs, it's absolutely insane that people believe the sport is "the cleanest it's ever been" just because the UCI said so. It's in their interests to not have these big name riders and teams exposed. The UCI has covered up dirty tests before and now with 10 times more money and politics on the line in today's day and age do you really think they wouldn't do such a thing again? It's absurd to think they wouldn't do that. Everything about the sport says "DOPING" and very little says "it's clean". The corruption and the amount of money at stake and the flawed testing system and the new advances in substances and ability to beat testing are all reasons to say this sport is NOT clean 🤘🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

@@lysanatt the most important thing these Drs provide is the ability and knowledge to pass the testing system. That is worth more than the 💉 itself. What good is the 💉 if the rider is going to test positive with a test?? They have the testing beat 100% and with great confidence!! 🤘🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Yeah Im only 42 and have not watched the pre-epo era, but also was hoping with the Armstrong case things could get back to normal. Once I saw a video where Paul Kimmage in relation to the Armstrong case says something like "Its not because some of the biggest cheaters was caught that doping ceased to exist.

Nothing about that, he probably is, but as stated, others are def as well.

People are taking EPO for Strava KOM’s and cat-3 crits It’s silly to think the top GC riders are clean

He said "If i won País Vasco i could win Vuelta!" So if you saw Izaguirre winning Vuelta at 42, you know, it's normal

Aaaaah here we go again we the eastern euros 😂 while most of the westerners keep on juicing ❤

What part of CH section do you wish to refute? You're entitled to pour scorn on their analysis as they are entitled to cast aspersions, see how that works? so wind your neck in.

Yep, and publish real time, all TUE's for all the riders.

​@@G-Train that should definitely be done, in all Olympic sports, any and all TUE's should be publicly listed and publicly accessible On tv when showing the results there should be a column for TUE's with Y/N

And the Brits

Ok dude, next time you'll make the translation for us, free

@@cyclinghighlights It’s not a translation issue! It’s either “used” or “will use”. As the piece makes clear it’s actually not a belief of the UCI itself anyway

Yes. Who deny that?
