  • The injection Wiggins got as I understand is a one off one that suppresses allergy attacks for six months.

    If they last for six months, why not have the injection in the Spring to cover you through the race season?

    Wiggins raced and won Paris-Nice, the Dauphine and Romandie in 2012 before he received an injection. Surely he rode through some crop fields and meadows in the latter two races at least. Odd that his symptoms should come on shortly before the tour

  • It depends what causes his hayfever, no? It can be very seasonal, so maybe his is caused by a type of pollen only present in the summer months?

    But the point remains, everything he's done is within the rules.

    But the rules can be abused. Back in the day you were within the rules if you had a haematocrit measure under 50%.
