I don't like saying this but..... I have a sneaking suspicion that Pogi is doping. one tell tale is that he isn't breathing hard. How one dopes in this day and age with WADA's biological passport and the frequency of testing is a head scratcher though. Remco surprised-- i thought he cracked at the last climb---come high Alps and Remco will fold and of course blame it on anything and everything.

Remember that Lance was mainly busted because he ratted out and threw other people under the bus. Cycling has been a doper sport for decades. Even before EPO you had cyclists hopped up on meth and god knows what else.

yep, even in the amateur classifications. I've raced against dopers. some got caught. and I've been accused of doping as well, both IRL racing as well as Zwift racing. Hence, i pause and am reluctant accuse Pogi.--but I really think he is.

I saw a clip yesterday of the TDF announcers discussing this. The best they could come up with is that if he was they would have heard about it and they haven’t so he must not be. 🤷‍♂️
