Egan Bernal EXPOSES Doping in Cycling Today..
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 апр 2024
- Egan Bernal is one of the best cyclists in the world today. He has achieved great positions in Tour de Romandie 2024 against Juan Ayuso, Volta Catalunya 2024 against Tadej Pogacar or against Jonas Vingegaard in Galicia. However, both he and the INEOS team of Carlos Rodriguez or Tom Pidcock are not the best in the world as in years past. That's why Egan Bernal wanted to tell us why this is happening and what is the solution he has for it.

Poor Eganito, need some marginal gains, like us! Give us a Super Thanks for improving the videos!
@cyclinghighlights. I think it’s time to check out the mostly boring Women’s peleton.
Namely Demi Vollering on Stage 5 of La Vuelta Feminina.
She gapped the field and had a huge smile on her face at the top. No evidence her breathing was even minimally labored. I call BS. Another Dutchy on the Sauce. Geeez.
I still don't know how to feel about this channel. The headlines are complete click bait and videos like this spend so long saying so little. Still, the knowledge of history, and willingness to go where others don't when we all know is so refreshing.
By just making shit up?
I need a big flashing satire sign because this channel absolutely messes with my head.
GCN bullshit...best line ever! Cannnot blame them to try and stay relevant lol
GCN - so laddish, just like football coverage....yuck.
Speaking of GCN, what th happened to their cycling coverage? I tried FloBikes; however, in the States almost everything is geo-restricted. Now I’m using Max and so far it seems better. And Peacock, but only because of Bobke. He’s the best ever.
if you need sponsorships up youre arse 247 its an ineviteable fate
The Welsh Alcoholic, Patrick Lefevre and the lover of Marion Rousse, we need to hold a friend of Bob meeting on this channel.
This channel is on a roll❤❤❤❤
A roll and Egg-anito
😅😅 facts
I can’t think of a better word than your “Aliens” one.
Absolutely 100% truth.
And to see people actually believing that MVP and Pogi are destroying the peleton consistently during the Spring 100% clean is fing baffling.
Like I have said more than a few times this year, I have NEVER seen someone that is in peak shape almost every time they race. Those two are the absolute worst at trying to hide it.
They don't even try to hide it. Even Lance was not so blatant.
It's approaching Indurain level of obvious. That guy was crushing mountain stages while also being much bigger than basically any modern sprinter. Pogi and the Anchovy may at least have the cover of being little guys but they out sprint and out everything the best climbers who aren't obviously 'enhanced"
@@mrvwbug4423 “Anchovy” is the best. We need a better handle for Tad Tad. Pogi is pretty lame, especially considering his absurdity.
"I have NEVER seen someone that is in peak shape almost every time they race"
You've never seen anyone who is training so precisely, specifically to achieve exactly that.
The far and away most obvious difference between the current crop of stars and previous ones, is the sheer 1000-optimized-variables precision training that smart trainers facilitate. There is no room for random, nor luck, anymore. All the guesswork is gone.
And you have seen someone in peak shape every race before: Car engines. All factors effecting human cycling performance is now almost entirely as well mapped out, understood and testable as engine performance is. Hence don't suddenly change from race to race anymore. Van der Vingepog's genetics just happen to blueprint a slightly bigger engine than what the others' do.
@@paulnorman8274 All great stuff, BUTTTT, like I said those two seem to “peak” everytime they race. No one has ever done what they are doing. End of story. Believe it if you choose to, but like all of the other stuff that’s happened, there will be light shed on it.
that GCN comment was so funny hahaha!
I blocked GCN several year ago...
Love it!..totally with you on GCN!…😂
Haaa, I only just commented on how much I loath GCN… for once I’m happy not to be alone in that.
GCN would for sure have called anybody who thought Armstrong was cheating "tinfoil hat conspiracy theorists" before he got caught. They are bottom feeding shills.
"Operation bikini" love it!!!
You speak so much truth, I know it is the truth, people so much better, in the past they would call that genetics, that is bull crap, we all know why, I will still watch
The lack of integrity is the biggest issue imho.
The differences is genetics. That's exactly why it's getting predictable. Genes don't change much from race to race.
Doesn't mean cycling has to be "clean." Just that Vingegaard didn't come up with some weird herring-derived hormones back in his fish days that only he knows about. Michele Ferrari and his ilk, are not in this to help one guy win. Their stuff, whatever it may now be that is not yet detectable, is available to anyone.
Instead, it is Watt meters, and even more so "smart"-trainers, combined with better analytics of every physiological facet underpinning cycling performance, that have allowed everyone to get close enough to genetic potential, consistently race after race, to let fundamental genetics matter much more than back when things were less precisely measurable and hence more variable.
Back when, cyclists' training, even at World Tour level, would vary by feel, how good their team mates felt, weather etc. Resulting in race-to-race variations big enough to help mask underlying genetic potential. Now, everyone is at genetic potential. In every race. And again: Genes don't change much between races.
It's also not just the stars. Everyone. Such that even team strategy can now be optimally calculated to ensure not just any lone challenger, but indeed any conceivable constellation of challengers and their domestiques, will have been reliably worn down to where even 3 of them cooperating in a chase, can't make up for Pog's slight, but consistent, genetic advantage.
Motorsports has had a similar issue for a long time: The car with the most powerful engine last race, still has the most powerful engine this race. In F1, they've introduced all manners of silly videogame like antics to try to make it "exciting" again. In cycling, we may end up where midstage bonus seconds awarded, end up becoming so generous, that they start overshadowing genetic differences. But if so, we're not really talking classic GC racing anymore.
@@paulnorman8274 I want honesty. Everybody needs to come clean about what they are taking.
Tom pidcock called it out by saying their going to fast ⏩
EPO 2.0
He said that because his pride is deeply hurt. He thought he was going to be GC contenter, Monument winner and multiple Rainbow jersey holder every year.
The result is MTB titles with weakest field for years, a fake US gravel race with no opposition as CX title. Otherwise he is an Iserbyt in winter and a Benoot on road.
He is overhyped by the medias, overpayed by his team and overrated by the public.
Most arrogant and reckless rider of the WT after Moscon. He pushed a guy in sprint race at Glasgow, he caused the LBL massive crash from 2022, he never ever take wind for the team or the breakaway he is in.
Ha ha, whatever BS GCN say 😂😂😂 How true. Anyway, it's aero socks, surely 🧦.
Protein shake after the race.
Obvious electric motor & battery in the massively oversized hub & tubing that serve no purpose except to hide a motor & battery.
Making your bike frame bigger & wider makes it more aerodynamic, said nobody, ever 😂
How have you not been sued yet???😊
what exactly are those words from Bernal in a recent interview? is there a link to that interview of Bernal? thanks
i dont believe froome cheated
You nailed it! These aliens are making these once great races unwatchable. It is too predictable. Unless Pogi slips on a banana peel, he should win the Giro 15 by minutes.
Unless he tries to win every stage, which is an error that was made by Simon Yates at the Giro in 2018.
Pogi will win every grand tour this year with the Danish Anchovy recovering from injury. The PEDs are soo well hidden these days WADA will never find them. It's not obvious like the 90s aliens were, when the Indurain was taking enough roids to kill a horse and winning grand tours while being bigger than most modern sprinters much less any modern climber.
Unwatchable? Speak for yourself! Pogacar is literally calling out where he is gonna attack and does it. If you can’t admire that are you even a cycling fan?
@@asdfgf784 Bernie Madoff called it out for 48 years that he was going to make money and did it. If can't admire Madoff, then how can you be a fan of hard-work?
If you are going to make fun of GCN, you better start bringing up the greatest non-pro cyclist, Durianrider.
The Dan Lloyd burn fat thing is the most incredible one I see this yr
Bingo! That guy is the master of non-sense.
Durianrider is right
DurianRider has been highlighting the DOPERS for eons, while at the same time promoting his drug of choice --->> SUGAR🤭🤭🤭🤭!
@@savagepro9060Yeah,sugar combined with steroids! 🙈
The Train rolls on .....
because it's "Too Big to Fail ! "
I remember several years ago during sky train days, the europortt commentators said cyclings definitely changed since the drug taking has stopped, as the best riders find it harder to break away from the peleton. Now the top stars just ride off to the distance with 50kn to go without breaking a sweat 😅 its gone full circle again , even the anchovie was embarressed by his time trial last year 😅
Pro cycling has always applied the principle of the train but few have had the budget to have the depth to have 3 or 4 riders almost as strong as the leader. Just look at UAE who implode not even able to maintain a train at all, but it doesn't matter because Pogacar is so strong he can win from any km he decides to try. UAE even had to remind us that UAE isn't Team Pogacar such is the irrelevance of Pogacar having anything more than someone to carry his water from the car it seems.
@@SamHocking Yup, Pogi is so alien that he's a one alien breakaway, there's no reeling him back in. Anchovy is much the same, though his support is the best anyone could ever ask for as well. Anchovy is an alien with supporting aliens.
@@SamHocking I don't think that you understand UAE's strategy with Pogi. Bjerg and Novak have specific roles, as do Molano and Großschartner. These guys are all critical to Pogi's overall victory. And, even though none of them are in GC contention, some of them (particuarly Majca) could be team leaders on squads like DSM and FDJ. Pogi is amazing but he does need a team - and he's got a very strong one.
I utterly loath GCN!
Anybody giving zero friction cycling a platform is worthless.
GCN is one big infomercial for cycling products haha
Next GCN video: why some may loath our channel and others love it.
They promote chain waxing, therefore they are scvm. No exceptions, chain wax pushers = scvm.
yes, robots with radios....They do what there told..UCI MTB is much more exciting these days.
On the XC side, the men's side is interesting, no real aliens even Schurter who is the GOAT of mens XC has to work for every win, on the women's side they have an alien in the form of Puck Pieterse, even Pauline Ferand-Prevot who is arguably the greatest women's cyclist of all time struggles to keep up wtih Pieterse. On the DH side it's like XC, you have a big field of competitive men and you have an alien on the women's side in the form of Vali Holl. Though with Holl it's particularly entertaining because she's decidedly chubby and not particularly fit (she attempted an EDR race, won two stages then fell off the face of the earth when her fitness ran out) but has back to back rainbow jerseys and won both world and overall last year.
@@mrvwbug4423 After 2 races, both men's and women's looks wide open..The racing is so strategic (my point about no radios)..Looking forward to seeing Ferand-Prevot and Puck back in the mix..Puck is amazing. (whats up with Neff?!) But I gotta say Batten and Blunk are looking strong..Same with Blevins..Koretzky is gonna win a bunch of races..In DH, Holl is a steamroller on wheels..not my favorite woman's DH rider though..haha
@@michaelsteven1090 I was also thinking about Neff, I was seeing her on podiums left and right and then all of a sudden she's finishing almost 20th?? And I don't watch the women as much as the men but from what I'm seeing she's consistently finishing that far back
I think this channel needs a sponsor... Tinkoff? Saxo?
Riis
@@cyclinghighlights perfect!
sponsors don't talk openly about doping, despite they appreciate it 😎🤣
I was a teen in the 90s watching La Vuelta, Tour de France, Giro d'Italia thinking these guys were super human clean from steroids!
I was about to say "Oh sweet summer child" then realised you're a few years older. 😆😆😆
@@abdul-kabiralegbe5660Lol, child back then, old dude now!
I dont see actual proof of anything you are publishing here. be serious please
And what I’m publishing?
I only said what Egan and Bardet said
They were the best and now a lot f people are better whenever they’re in the best shape of their lifes
@@cyclinghighlights It's 1990 all over again. EPO 2.0. 😂😂
If you believe it's normal to ride off the front on La Redoute and hold off a group of committed pros without breaking sweat you will believe anything... Even a doped VDB had to wait until the final climb when he destroyed the race in 1999. VDB showed who was strongest on La Redoute but there was no chance of him staying away until the finish. This was a guy with a maximum of 520 watts and a VO2 of 86 - but he wasn't an alien...
@@cyclinghighlightsYou make implications as though you have the moral high ground. But you don't have a real understanding of Biology. Doping is broscience and you don't understand why. So you're part of the problem, not the solution.
I can explain why, but you wouldn't want to hear it.
@@cyclinghighlights Just curious...is it not possuble that other riders are also in tbe best shape of their lives, and just better than bernal? Has bernal suddenly become the second coming of Eddie Mercxx?
Good god I didn't know that was a bottle opener on the bottom of my cycling shoe !!
The tone of this video is incredible
I Can't believe you can show a photo of lidl-trek and not mention their star rider who has an actual doping record.... Skjelmose!!
Lol..luv the emperor has no clothes commentary on here🤘
A true fan but also one very frustrated with doping?
And not ONE mention of the SKY/INEOS 'jiffy bags' !
Man every video you crack me up. The power of rehearsel and cynical phrazes. This one is another great compilation of bits of the last weeks.
Sure G the Welsh Alcoholic is now a friend of the channel!
I once called out G's performance and got run over by his fanboys. Do not make fun of G, especially his terrific hair.
Bernal is only able to win if the last stages are scrapped.
You need to do a video on eros polis stage win going over ventoux in the 1994 tour its got a great back story
Great sum-up of "the wonderful world of pro cycling". Who are the believers ?! 😂
Our beloved danish anchovy lmao also great vid btw
This is the best Cycling channel of all time.
This is the weirdest monologue lol
Where in the video is any information related to the title of the video?
En muchos sitios parce
@@cyclinghighlights, which one, exactly?
Yh just clickbait. Will block this channel from now on.
INEOS Grenadiers!!!!!!!!!
So what are they taking?
I hated boring sky, I hate boring ineos and as for GCN have a guess 🤣 otherwise I love everyone 👍
Doping in cycling will always be around either its medications or gels its going to be there
Data pronounced dater?
The sad fact is that the top cyclists for more than 3 decades have pretty much all been doping to one degree of another. When one guy that's dominated retires and another is right behind him is telling.
It's 1990 again. EPO 2.0.
Think you got the timeline wrong, he crashed in winter 21 then had a lowkey 22 and 23 season
No. He won Giro 2021
I remembered well because 2020 one was won by Tao
sorry, you said “he crashed in the winter of 22” even tho he crashed in winter of 21, overall funny and good video
That Colombian cocaine is working well.
"Space Beings" -- Classic.
Will it surprise you that in the future we will have even more capable riders?
With the advancement of biology and knowing how the human body works, there will be more optimizations to make.
I feel like people think we know everything about the human body, yet we know so little and there is yet so much to be discovered. With every advancement in science there is room for possible optimization if you like it or not.
Also environmental changes can affect the performance. Everybody before 1995 but especially older riders will show much more contamination with led in their body thanks to capitalism allowing fuels with led... Do you know if that is already a huge advantage of newer generation riders?
Nutrition is also a huge thing to still be improved on especially since it is a highly individual based what might be right for you, and also depends on environment factors. We still don't fully understand how the gut works in every aspect.
best narrative ever
When the truth comes out will the UCI give Bardet an asterisk ?
It's all aerodynamics and clean fun powering the peleton in 2024!
I dont think Egan can keep up with the monster. He only won 2019 Tdf, there hasn't had any serious competition in that year.
so many people are surprised about doping in sport at such a high level. Lol ))
What's the point of this video? He'll never be at the level he was at when he won the TdF.
Natives of the Andes have naturally high hematocrits, more than other people living at the same altitudes. It's in the scientific research. Could he be clean?
The track record of South American riders caught doping would not support that theory 😂
@@Evaso_CC that's funny. I'd be curious if you have a list? In a 3-week tour, doping would likely beat natural methods because hematocrit drops over time. To prepare for a single-day event, the science seems unclear whether EPO or bags are superior to altitude or hypoxia.
I've a lot of respect for Bardet.
It's amazing how the human evolves so fast these days.
Haha, clickbait ;-) Egan isn't exposing anyone ;-)
Of course.
the gcn line . . .ye, i wonder if they are going to see if a bike can be made out of banana peel next week?
These guys are doing Lance level doping for sure!!
No, it has become much more refined since then. Different drugs, new masking agents and the all important use of TUEs.
@@dangurtler7177can you tell us more? I am curious about how they succeed to hide it that good. Look at MVDP long race with hills where he averaged 47kph, including solo breakaway and then standing chilly and watching 2bd and 3rd places finishing. It looked like he came to a children party to celebrate
Aliens!! Love it
So they are blowing away the times when EPO was wide spread….of course it is all natural and the new equipment is light years ( internal motors included) hey they are eating clean
Eganitos bag of chips:
Original Nacho Cheese
Newer Flaming Hot

Come on.. Bernal was never on top of anything.. he won TDF 2019 against ..well at best second string riders (Kruijswijk 3rd and Buchmann 4rd ) and would have lost to Pinot if he hadn’t cracked at the pressure…Alaphilippe a spring classic Puncheur fifth…🤭
TDF 2020 abandoned after loosing 7-8 min on mountain 🏔️stage Pogi/Roglic
Giro 2021 winner against tough guys like Caruso at 2nd 🥈 😏
At what race has he ever beaten any top rider ? Just name one ☝️
Anyways i hope the best for this guy 👍
Bullshit gcn channel.. thats the best comment ever and so true i love this channel
GCN zone 2 bullshit😂😂😂 so true and so awesome ❤❤❤
6 aliens? i know only 3, who is another 3?
Pogi, Jonas, Mathieu, Remco, Rogla, WvA
The channel of insinuation and no proof. And being the lover of Marion Rousse is a bad thing?
lol...operation bikini
I've been following this channel for a while and these doping allegations are just wild. Not a single convincing argument. And all this sassy, sarcastic talk is just sad.
Maybe this will convince you that people like tadej or jonas are natural athletes:
The body is a biological machine and we understand that machine and the effects of training and nutrition a lot better today then we did 20, 10 or even 5 years ago. There are more road cyclist than ever before and there is far more knowledge in the field.
You sound like a bunch of old guys still thinking 23mm tires, 200PSI, rim brakes and 5kg steel bikes are fast and disregard everything new as bullshit.
If riders talent is normal distributed(which it is), it is almost a statistical certainty that the top few riders will be significantly faster then all the rest.
I try to make it simple to you. If the Top GC riders of the TdF last year were all finishing in a time of a bit more than 82h, it might seem odd when the winner is a few minutes faster then 2nd place. But compare that to me a fit beginner cyclist with an FTP of 307W, I would finish the Tour not in less than 100h and my mom as a average commuter would probably need something like 200h. If you would compare all humans on GC you would see that the difference between the world tour pros is almost negligible compared to the rest of us. Vingegaard was just 0,2% faster than third place Adam Yates, yet that are 10min on GC.
Which again shows how important marginal gains are, which you seem to ridicule in your videos.
1% faster on a race like the Tour de France can make up 50min on GC.
Then nutrition... you downplay that effect a lot. Have you ever raced on like 30g of carbs per hour vs. 50-80g/h? This will likely increase your power output by 10-25%. The riders of today are not only faster then the doped athletes from yesterday because of improved bike tech and improved aerodynamic positions and bike fitting, it is mostly because of nutrition. Even with all the enhancing chemicals flowing through your blood, if there are no carbohydrates these PEs will get you nowhere because you are then always bottlenecked by your fat metabolism.
If you look at the List of tallest people on Wikipedia or any other List of natural mutations in humans, you will see that the margin between the first 5 entries of the list is far greater than between 10th, and 15th. That is just how nature works. Pros today are all riding the same bikes, eating almost the same and training pretty similar, the biggest distinction are the genetics. And just a fraction of a percent improvement, will look huge on long distance event.
Nice, a lot of text for saying they're mutants.
Ik.
