E-Bike hits cyclo-cross racing!

[Danimal]

Well I guess Lance isn't the only one that finds cheating beneficial. For whatever reason I find this quite amusing...E-bike have hit the main stream. I guess they no longer need to us steroids, just batteries!

Absolutely ridiculous!

But the upshot is finding out about Evie Richards! How cool is MTB + CX domination!!!
Hope she stays with it and doesn't go all roadie.

At least, mechanical doping is better for your health...

I knew there was a great reason I don't follow the sport. I don't race, I don't follow "professionals," I just ride my bike. Without electric assist.

Femke: "It wasn't my bike, and I didn't ride it in the race..." Or was that her dad that said that. Classic. Ethics schmethics...

 

[Danimal]

Possession is 9/10s of the law, to something like that.

Officer, that's not my dope..someone left it in my pocket!

Yet, before the race was over, she withdrew because of a mechanical issue.

Not sure I want anything electric near my balls?

Since when!?!?!?!

Adult toys are battery operated so.....

Try it, you might like the tickle. Or explosion if it malfunctions like ECigs.

Been there, done that, and yes there was an explosion!

 

[DBMX119]

She was under suspicion for some time. I guess there was a few races this year where she out climbed and out performed people she has never been close to. I think one of the races she did this and ended up winning was the Euro championships.

 

[Grego]

I read she had a motor similar to the Vivax assist. Genius! Fits in the seat tube completely concealed.

 

[skyungjae]

It's amazing that they finally caught someone. These seat tube drives have been around for a while as well as the battery tech to propel them. This is likely not going to be the first person to be caught.

 

[Mikie]

What a hollow victory for anyone who does this shiat! I mean GEEZ! I couldn't live with myself...

 

[Cyclotourist]

Am I getting it confused, or does it sound like her dad/coach/manager was in on it as well?
Great family.

 

[Danmtchl]

Her brother also got busted for doping.
