I wonder how I would look riding a white pony with a monkey on my back.


Like a circus clown? No, that would be a white car.

They're just not tested because no one cares. Regardless, some of them
are doping. Doping is part of Western Culture.


Dumbass,

I did the Seattle to Portland Fredfest a couple weeks ago. I met up with
some old friends at the first rest stop and rode with them. When we
reached the halfway point, they ALL pulled out pills and started popping
them. "This prevents cramps." etc. Thankfully, I had a bee sting self
injector strapped to my seat stay. I told them it was my heroin supply
and I fit right in.


I take prescription painkillers before I race.

So far there doesn't seem to be any proof that taking the painkillers
has improved my performance such as to allow me to place better than I
otherwise would have placed.

I still consider it doping.

I know that I wouldn't push myself nearly as hard as I do when I race
if I had a repeat performance of that time when I hurt so bad I
couldn't walk afterwards.

Marian doesn't need a painkiller, she needs a recumbent. Once you get a
woman on a recumbent she will never go back to an upright. Of course, she
has to have the good sense to stop racing. That is strictly for jerks.
