African AIDS cum posted:Do you think Sky believers are worse than the Livestrong bunch ever were? Worse, if only because they repeat the same bullshit counter arguments as the Livestrong crowd used without a hint of self awareness or irony. They've no excuse, the US Postal case is still fresh. I don't feel like going back to quote the person but I remember someone in the thread saying Froome was on a motor on that corner he attacked Contador on.

Also in that video French tv direction missed both attacks because they're showing a replay of nothing and then cutting back to a 30 m gap.

Worth noting tweets with actual power data are being self censored. Ross Tucker and the others who were doing power estimations were pretty much spot on with their 'pseudoscience' calculations.

I don't think riding up ventoux at 400w is superhuman. Wiggins will TT between 450 and 500 for over an hour. His, um, body composition change is just sort of weird.

How in the gently caress did Froome pull out 1000w? Edit: I watched that monster of a stage in 2013 and was blown away by his performance. There is no way it was legit.

Some stuff re this whole recording: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/ot...Brailsford.html quote:My heart rate doesn’t go very high. I get to about 168 and that’s going flat-out. I can’t get much higher. It’s very low. A lot of my team-mates get over 200. I don’t really understand why, myself. I know I’ve got a large lung capacity, over eight litres. Average capacity for my height and weight is nearer six litres. And from the guys who estimated Froome's FTP way back when: https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=1033149476696091&id=213103522034028&__mref=message_bubble quote:The first rest day of the Tour de France produced, as usual, some off-the-bike stories, but in 6 years of covering the race, I can't recall such a bizarre sequence of events as this one.

Seems the HR is getting more attention from when the effort came in context of the Tour than the power spike itself. Well if 168 is his true max than 161 would be 96% of max. vikingstrike fucked around with this message at 06:36 on Jul 14, 2015 |

His heart rate doesn't change a blip during those attacks. As in, not in the tiniest bit. Are there PED's that can do that, cos it sounds more like the HR data is wrong to me? I'm not defending him, he's clearly on something, but I don't think this is the evidence that's gonna get him

I would not drat someone based on HR data alone. My HRM sometimes inexplicably holds at too high or too low a number without changing for like up to 30 minutes, before it finally starts accurately recording me. It's plausible enough an explanation that you can't nail Froome to the cross for suspect HR data.

Similarly, the 1000w lasts for less than 2 seconds, which again could be just a spike in the data. I know I cant push 1200w but I get that reading on my power meter on occasion. Its still an inhuman performance though. Multiple 600w attacks.

For anyone who regularly rides/races with a HRM monitor (as I do, as well as a number of others in this thread), a delay or lag in heart rate is normal - if you put in a big attack (incidentally 2 seconds at 1000w isn't a big deal - I can do that), then you wouldn't see that reflected in the heart rate until roughly 10 seconds later. However, the heart rate barely changing in his attacks is really odd. I've no idea what that could indicate, doping or otherwise. I can only think that he must have been riding close to his max heart rate already, and therefore even a big attack would barely raise that. Being able to ride that close to max heart rate for so long is pretty strange, though, but does it indicate doping? I don't know. The problem is, we've not got anything to compare it with. As the Science of Sport post said, transparency cannot be a bad thing - we simply don't know, or have a representative sample of what an elite cyclist's data climbing Ventoux should look like. What I do know is that 388w for the duration of Ventoux is, on the surface, a legitimate figure. I would love to see power and heart rate data overlays during live broadcasts and, if teams have nothing to hide, I don't see why they wouldn't allow it (well there are reasons, but in the interests of transparency I think they should forsake them). At the very least this is yet another Sky PR disaster!
