  • Tour de Suisse 2022 is now on fire with Geraint Thomas, Jakob Fuglsang or Sergio Higuita fighting for the yellow jersey in the Switzerland Tour 2022. But in the past, other Tour de Suisse were amazing, like the most DOPED of them, 1996 Tour de Suisse with characters like Peter Luttenberger, Bjarne Riis or Evgeni Berzin. Know their story.

    There's also another Austrian who doped and performed extremely well during a competition at everyone's surprise. It's bernard Kohl who finished third and won the best climber's jersey on the 2008's Tour de France. He used the doctor who was as the center of the Aderlass affair later. You should do a video about him.

    With such a relentless, long term history of doping how can anyone believe it is different today? How can Slovenia produce so many outstanding cyclists from a tiny population? How did Padun get back to back runaway victories in the Dauphine, with very little before or after? This channel will surely have a long and entertaining future. 🤷‍♂️

      Cycling is clean now. The fact the colombians have returned is proof. As well as the fact they ride much slower today than even in the mid 90s. Alpe dhuez is now 3 minutes slower than 27 years ago despite all advancements in the sport

    I think it's a bit of an exaggeration to suggest Luttenberger almost won the Tour that year. By the time the Tour rolled around he was no longer at the peak of his form as he was at Suisse, and was never close to taking the race lead. Perhaps looking to Zaina and the Giro may be more apt here. Also, to say Bugno had 'failed at the Giro'' is against misleading, particularly if you just look at his GC and see him as that type of rider. He'd won a stage and finished second to Zaina the day Olano took the lead. Perhaps this all says there's no great revelations in some of these videos, even if they include some rare footage, whilst there's never any focus on what riders were subjected to during this time. Berzin riding a full classics campaign, the Giro, Suisse and then the Tour, would that happen today? Did it ruin his career?
