The UCI has not prevented publication of data. It has simply prevented live data feeds, which has more to do with media deals, than "covering up" the data. The data is available to anyone if the rider/coach/team choose to publish it.wombatK wrote:Part of what raised questions about LA was that people could review his climbing performance against others in the
peloton using real-time gps + powermeter data, and conclude that he was 5% faster than "the rest" on climbs.
The UCI closed the peephole that put such data on view (or was it a loophole) and now prevents publication of such data.
Anyone who wants to know how fast riders climb just needs a watch. Don't need power meters or GPS for that.
