  • Greg LeMond has always been an active cyclist in the fight against doping. One of the gregarious who helped him win the 1990 Tour de France, Eric Boyer, and who was also manager of dopers like Cristian Moreni at Cofidis, Benjamin Thomas' team that has won stage 5 in the 2024 Giro d'Italia, believes that Jonas Vingegaard, Tadej Pogacar, Remco Evenepoel or Primoz Roglic are doing things that the dopers of the past like Lance Armstrong or Bjarne Riis didn't even do.

    Drugs have been a part of cycling for 100 years. Every decade or so, organizers and team directors declare: "Cycling is now clean - this time or sure". Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool us 100 times, and we clearly aren't paying attention.

      Personally I believe Boardman and Lemond both were clean. I remember Boardmans interviews and his articles written by him when he was cycling. He explained how tough he found it to race the TDF. By week three he was dead physically - which is normal in a three week race. You are being ground down throughout. Look at the footage of riders on the podium in 70/80s. They look like they've raced because they appear tired. Look at the demeanour of riders on the podium since 1980s. They look like they barely sweated. The parcours are the same. The bikes might be better......but no one seems to know why riders on the podium look as fresh as a daisy compared to the podiums 70/80s. This channel asks legitimate questions

      ​@cyclinghighlights well Lemond admitted that he struggled to compete in 1990s. The effects of his hunting accident and the proliferation of EPO circa 1991/2 put paid to his competing. Personally I believe Lemond was clean. Look at the riders on the podiums 70/80s. Their demeanour is of men who raced, who sweated, toiled. Then look at the demeanour of riders podium since 1990s. They look barely out of breath or having broken sweat.

      Vo2max of 92 is not special. Jonas Vingegaard had a Vo2max of 97 at age 21 the year before joining Visma.
      Greg Lemond was on the US olympic cycling team that were massive blood dopers, the did not raise in the ranks until one year after EPO was in clinical trials in California, and his records were set in 1989 and 1990 while EPO was rather unknown and available in pharmacies..
      Greg LeMond got dropped by sprinters in the mountains of the Giro because of anemia, and he got some magic "iron shots" and came out and dominated a time trial...
      In Greg Lemond's mind he is the best cyclist ever, and all the doped cyclists after him - irrespective of whether he claims they use motor doping or EPO none have ever done a long time trial as fast as clean Greg bobbing forth and back on his old bike.
      There is no freaking way that Ulrich, Armstrong, Cancellara, Indurein..wouldn't have destroyed Lemond with the same level of doping

At least Roglic had the decency to look wiped out when he lost the Tour against Pogacar, and Froome the same when he came in first on mountain climbs...

    One of the things that Armstrong claims makes a difference is the formulation of gels that can contain a lot more sugar without giving the riders diarrhea. Armstrong claims that the gels today give the athletes roughly twice the energy it did in the past.
