I meant doping-wise, how you usually defend some riders with no other apparent reason other than them being Belgian (e.g. Gilbert), even when they're a few levels above of "overwhelming evidence of doping" (JVDB) Though your last sentence is also true.

Thank you I defend almost all cyclist, really, not only Belgians. Still believe Contador is innocent, that says enough 
Though I'm starting to believe them less now (VDB, Gilbert, Roelandts), however still believe the young generation is quite clean! |

I made the terrific discovery in the last week that I write my thesis more effectively when I have replays of old cycling races on in the background. Excuse me while I get out my collection of Tour de France highlights from 2003-present. Actually I was watchign 2010 today... trackstands on the Tourmalet! Fond memories

Top5 (only moments i've actually seen):
5) Trackstand on Pailheres between Contador and Schleck
4) 2007 fight between Rasmussen and Contador
3) Any and all Cavendish stage wins, mostly Champs ones
2) 2006 final ITT
1) Bradley Wiggins podium interview, "We are about to draw the raffle"

I don't know why we would have one. Nobody wants to watch a stream on daily anyway when you can watch it 10 times bigger with chat by clicking a link.

Yeah, but I guess it's nice to just have something to see the quality or whatever. Random button.
