Nah mate, you managed it honestly, they're doing it dishonestly. Of the two, you are the one hard done by.

Fausto Coppi of Italy, who won the Tour in 1949 and 1952, was once
asked if he ever fueled himself with amphetamines.
“Only when necessary,†he said.
How often was that?
“Most of the time,†Coppi replied.
Jacques Anquetil of France, a five-time winner, once said with
sarcasm, “Do they expect us to ride the Tour on Perrier water?â€

If I thought EPO might make a difference, I may consider it.


Firstly, I faint and throw up (simultaneously) at the sight of a needle so could never inject myself.

Secondly, to get through all the fat I'd need a REALLY BIG needle

S'pose there was a reason I ride the CR1 and Mayo rode the ummm... Addict!!

Injecting into the fat layer is not an issue. You are fine there.

Well, riding an addict bike really does attract attention doesn't it? Silly Mayo!
