Some people on other forums are calling for the British athletes to be banned too.

Just want to make it clear there were no British runners in this case. The journalist invented a training group from the UK to trap Rotich.

According to ARD tv in Germany "the biological passports of 11 biathletes, including 6 Russians, strongly point to doping having taken place".

This is from the investigation into the IBU staff receiving bribes to cover up the story.

I feel like this is just repeating news, because there's just so much :p

Slovenian cycling is under investigation as well, again in the same Mark S./Erfurt case. It's mostly going around Milan Erzen, manager (and co-founder) of Bahrain-Merida and apparently one of the big guns in Slovenian cycling. He was also leading the Adria Mobil Continental team, for which among others Primoz Roglic rode. Obviously nobody has been accused, but the UCI is investigation Erzen and his connections. Same for Croatia, but in terms of top cyclists that's just not super interesting :p

One of the most expected cases in the history of expected cases, that took longer than expected :lol: 

 

 

 

The jokes on the Dutch forum are mostly about the anomalies...."Anomalies in his biopassport? What, did it not look like a mountain stage for once?" :p

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
