The Untold Story Of Why Tom Dumoulin Quit Cycling 

Yes, it's REAL. And it will be a good Van Rysel bike.

@@cyclinghighlights Where do you to place your comment and like? Here? Or the other channel?

Underrated post lmao.

Bjarne Riis should harness those tail winds, they have miraculous powers.

😂😂😂😂😂

I would much rather have the good ole pre-EPO days. I also dislike all this new technology on the bikes, because all the ill-informed can wrongly claim the faster times are due to different bikes from the Armstrong era.

That depends whether you want to listen to the inuendo on this channel.

@@langstonenglishtraining1514 Oh the bikes nowadays are horrendous things to look at compared to back in the day when they were beautiful to look at.

In short, no there isn’t

So true they used to be sleek and elegant now these designers and engineers have gone crazy with all the space age nonsense for marginal gains.

Thank you very much for your support! We'll try to make our Best!

doping is fake, only disc breaks matter.

Gonna be best tdf ever 😅

To be fair though, cyclists are rarely busted by testing. It’s suspicious doctors getting investigated, team hotels getting raided, grand jury investigations, etc. it seems the testing has always been a step behind. In addition, it’s not the UCI that busts anyone. Most doping controls are instituted by the individual countries themselves. For instance, Lance butting heads with the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA). and there is just so little interest in a country busting their own riders! Can you imagine Slovenia going after Pogi or Primoz? Or the Russians going after any Russian riders?

are the mountain performances getting better? I don´t think so! The doping greats of the past still hold the best times on the famous mountains. I´m not saying there is no doping, i think there is quite a lot but jeezzz, don´t just throw random stuff out there

Which performances? Give examples of unnatural power data.

You are dead wrong... All climb records are being broke, in giro we saw pogcar beating records for more than 4 min 😁😂🤣

I occasionally remind the youngins how most everyone in the USA thought Lance was clean. I mean how could it be possible right? Unless the UCI was corrupt… It’s just like when people today point to their new ruse.. er i mean testing system.. and say its impossible to beat.

It is edgy, but not hypocritical.

They are more down to the ridiculous trend of narrow handlebars

disc brakes , lacking rear wheel hydro planing.

I think the long whiskers and penchant for fresh fish suits him . 🦭

He's 33 not 63

I run 2:57 on a marathon in 2009 without doping. I was 36 that time, so what's your point?

@@ettio Not saying he's doping now, obviously. Just that riding away from the peloton in an A Zwift race to win solo minutes ahead with over 6 w/kg is something many current pros can't do, and this guy is retired for years.

Interesting input - thanks for that

Doping has caused many deaths in cycling , epo a good example , I would expect deaths to go up 10fold if legalised

And much more. But 3 flying youngsters in 2017 cracked after That, kquitas, Pierre baguette n' the french of the vid

Cycling led me to soccer on Wikipedia. The man City manager has an excellent history

Only jamaican not to get caught was too fast to be caught 😅

The FIS event was earlier in the Aderlass story. Preidler's name came later and was caught indirectly. Dürr confessed the name of Mark Schmidt and to using his clinic in Germany, which was then raided by Munich police who found evidence of 21 athletes using his services, one of which was Preidler. afaik the only link Dumoulin had to Aderlass, was Preidler was denied attending a Sunweb training camp and so named the riders at the camp as suspicious to Munich Police. Dumoulin's and Roglic's face was used to ask the 20 other athletes if they were aware they used Schmidt's services, but it seems they hadn't as nobody confessed.

Yes dude Vingegaard Pogacar Dumoulin Van der Poel Roglic (but You can call him doped) And Froome, obviously

And all who take the pills just to get them through a day at the office. Anxiety, headaches, stomach aches, all the boosters that get you through life.!

That's amazing if he told some stories about Rogla

@@cyclinghighlights if only. Hes still rather shy/reserved and dutch journalists would never dare to question their golden boy

Yep.

No

HGH Jaw ? I wouldn't go that far.... 😀

HGH isn’t performance enhancing, but athletes thought it was. I wish it was as i have a pituitary condition and my HGH is “naturally” multiples of normal. It results in bulky but not necessarily stronger muscles. AKA extra weight only

@@lkb3rd very interesting perspective to share!, plenty of high profile athletes over the years with natural growth hormone abundance via pituitary condition, Bigfoot Silva, Hong Man Choi, Andre The Giant etc I always presumed they were stronger for it as Andre in particular made fools of wrestlers who were big lifters and very strong made them look like children. Then theres the other athletes who were normal but decided to invest heavily into synthetic HGH like Bob Sapp and the current strongest armwrestler on the planet Levan Sagnashvili. What is your opinion on them and are you a 7 footer? 🙂

I don’t know about those athletes. I am 5’11” because i deveoloped it in my twenties so my long bones had fused and won’t grow after that. I have a little bit of acromegaly face and my hands and feet grew but it is’t obvious like if i had it as a kid.

@@lkb3rd thats even more rare really to develop it later in life, there are many different cases of people who produce far more growth hormone than normal, some are giants with no particular disability most famously Wilt Chamberlain who was 7ft 2 and could move as fast as an olympic sprinter, others are quite disabled by the extra size and then theres the bizarre case of Adam Rainer who was 4ft 5 at age 18 but by age 33 he was 7 ft 1 so his bones were somehow able to grow despite having reached maturity. Thankyou again for commenting, its insightful , maybe the performance enhancing effects of synthetic GH is only due to the increased size of someones frame and the athletes who abuse it synthetically might only benefit if they already have a large frame (Bob Sapp was already 6ft 7 and Levan a lanky 6ft 3) So maybe with help from people like you athletes might realize they dont need to take HGH as eating excess of food will put the same weight on. Have a great day

Yes, not the usual hagiographic cycling content

@@cyclinghighlights That's a logical fallacy that doesn't justify your comment. 🤡

No

Strange case certainly. Always liked TD, but seen through this lens it all looks very suspect. Good podcast
