Tour De France 2012 riders 'too skinny'?
A non cyclist friend of mine asked me the other day so I did a video response about it. Feel free to share your comments and opinions.

The pros would never be drug cheats :-)
Perhaps I need to discus changing my blood pressure medication with my GP ;-)

Classic! As I read this I take my morning tablet of Micardis for my blood pressure.... Who would have thought that I'm a drug cheat! No wonder I'm so awesome on the road, and angry and happy at the same time!

Maybe it is time to legalise and monitor, instead of banning some of this stuff. As I understand it, "normal" body fat for a male is around 12% and for a female 20%. A range could be established for athletes at elite level.

Elite athletes are not normal, nothing they do can be compared to everyday living or joe average.
They are so finely tuned for one thing, power through the legs and cranking up hills, they are the F1 of people, sure they carry very little fat!
Rest of the year they bulk back up a little!
Ever seen a marathon runner? Be silly to carry too much weight for them too!
