If you don’t like it, walk away.
Or? Should all the MPCC teams walk away too? They don't like it either? Lets ring them up and tell them AndyP from lufguss thinks they should all fuck off.
Applying for a TUE is not cheating
Uhm. It is if the athlete/team are purposely using it to gain advantage instead of treat a legitimate health problem. With Freeman's performance and the findings of the committee, you're saying that was all above board and fine and dandy? If so you're in the minority-it stinks.
Comparing steroids to aero gel is not exactly comparable, one is designated as a controlled substance, another an as yet undefined technical matter. Sky still adorn themselves in whatever aero vetements they can conjure up, don't they?
Why not respond to what I posted before, which is that your stance on this is entirely inconsistent and changes depending on what aspect of it you want to dismiss.

It’s professional sport, there are grey areas and teams exploit them. If you don’t like it, walk away.
Applying for a TUE is not cheating, the UCI have to approve it. I don’t think Wiggins cheated, clearly I wasn’t there, but I think they realised they could eliminate his allergy issues with one injection before his major objective of the year, applied for it and had it granted. As so many teams and riders were exploiting this grey area the UCI sought to close it down. That’s how the sport works. Look at Lotto-Soudal and their aero gel at the Dauphine, they saw a grey area to exploit and tried it. The UCI closed that loophole too.
