It also makes cycling a competition of who has the best genes and training plan. Which is kinda gross honestly. Open up the drugs and then there are whole other aspects to the competition than being born with good blood (literally).
- timeon 3y ago> Open up the drugs and then there are whole other aspects to the competition than being born with good blood (literally). Cycling is about endurance and power output. If you remove 'genes and training plan' you are left with dice roll. If anything I would remove team radios [0]. [0] Like when Anna Kiesenhofer won in Tokio.
- operatingthetan 3y agoLeaving out strategy and tactics seems odd. It's not roulette.
- pessimizer 3y agoBetter that than a competition of who is most willing to destroy their health. Open doping would become extreme quickly. edit: and it seems pointless to "solve" the problem of different genetics, because genetics would also influence how you reacted to PEDs. It's just adding a thing.
- operatingthetan 3y agoIt would be a more authentic competition than what we have now. Which is pretending it’s clean and finding out a few years later it wasn’t.
