True, I just wish cycling was clean because im after las years tour de france i started to wonder if i want a career in cycling an still be interested with it because the doping is gettin boring now, im gettin fed up of cyclists doping , i just wish they would see sense that there gonna get caught so theres no point in trying to cheat, but i have stuck with cycling and will continue too through this every tough time. Its goo to be able to talk to people about cycling because i all my mates dont like cycling they like football n rugby. |

If you have a passion for it, do it. It seems to be improving. Heck, We've recently seen clean riders winning important classics for the first time in almost 20 years 
Call me an idealist, call me what you will, but I truly believe one day the cheating will be confined to a very few bad apples.

Same here i think the way the riders are getting tested now is making it even harder for them to cheat, french cyclists that i have known seem to never cheat, why because the law there government has, with jail sentences, i think that should be in place in every country and maybe cheating wont be happening again. but the new doping system of catching riders out is really working, its only a matter of time until cycling that clear its name, just need to stay positive about it. |

I don't think many people would call you an idealist, but, more on topic, I think that cyling is getting cleaner and I have high hopes for the next few years.

Valv.piti = Valverde
Therefore, doped

I'm not to say whether or not he's doped today, but what's important is that he still hasn't got a suspension for his proved dope use during the Puerto affair. |

On one side - I am fan of Valverde (and same birthdate surely doesn´t have anything to do with it) and even I think that he should be suspended - but together with Contador and other non-cyclists what appeared there. No difference - Basso was suspended so why these two were not? He made a mistake (I don´t care if intentionally or not) and he paid for it - as everyone should. Even Valverde, Contador or anyone else.
on the other one - If they will suspend him and Contador not - I will think that justice in cycling is really piece of s*** and fell more sympathy to him than ever... |

Well, Antonio Colom, for example, though that document was referred to be from Liberty Seguros. Maybe Fuentes mixed things, and inicials prove nothing.
But thats not my point. I think there was found blodd from Valv.Piti but AC was just referred in documents possesed by Fuentes. Thats what I read. |

So you read the entire documentation referring to the Fuentes case? If not, I don't think any of us are in position to infer thru this and that rumour or "news" about a riders particular participation in doping schemes.
