But if it happens it won't be Travis Tygart that makes the decision. Christian Prudhomme looks to be keeping a low profile. But I wonder what he thinks of the idea that some guy in the US gets to decide who won his race. F |

He comes across as a pretty neat guy who's genuinely passionate about cycle racing and cycling history and is very happy that cycling is becoming big in the English speaking world. (It brings in the bucks of course, several English cities are rumoured to be offering serious money to host TdF stages in the coming years). Of course he's in a position to know a lot of the stuff that doesn't get out for public consumption. Maybe he'll write a 'Kiss'n'Tell' book outlining his *real* opinions of some of the main players in the cycling world, that'd be interesting. -- |

The increase in enthusiasm for cycling here is obvious - I live in Surrey, UK - we had both men's and women's Olympic road races, both Olympic time trials and, of course the tests last year. Next, the Tour of Britain stage 8. We'll be there and expect the roads to be wall to wall with spectators, many of whom will have cycled to get there. Good times... I think Prudhomme will be displeased by the USADA decision.

I think Prudhomme will be displeased by the USADA decision. La France is not a nation that likes being told what to do. Yeah, the problem for Prudhomme (in those terms) is that he's gonna be told what to do by either Tygart or McQuaid (with a conflicting instruction set probably) which is not ideal from a French point of view. Whether he'll find a 'third way' (whatever that might be) remains to be seen. Ultimately money talks so as a pragmatist Prudhomme might be tempted to take the path of least 'dollar damage' for ASO. He really does want a clean sport but it's a long road from where we are now to there and he may have decided it's just not achievable. (either in the short term or ever). Living with creeps like Phatty McQuaid and his scummy predecessor might just be the political reality he has to go along with. http://www.cyclingnews.com/features/...branch-surgery -- |
