Forget it.. I'll just watch fucking newsnight on catch up! 👆

Thanks. I think I've read that. I'm more interested in what was said on newsnight. Kinda interested on what the mainstream media is discussing and what the (non cycling) masses are seeing.

Ha! Razzermouse time! Did anyone watch it and can give me a summary? I really don't want to watch Newsnight, even less on catch up.

Anyone watch newsnight?

And some sofa lounging :)

And this one..

Yup. Don't worry we're keeping her muzzled, but sad people think it's because she bites..

So Lily the greyhound came into our lives a month ago. She is so lovely, gentle, intelligent and just brilliant. As a rescue greyhound she has to wear a muzzle for 2months, part of the rescue agreement to avoid any issues with very small furries. She's met so many cats and squirrels and has been fine. It's breaking my heart that so many people we meet in our local parks think it's because she bites :(

Also Adamo Time Trial still available. Bought from sigma sport 12months ago, used only 5 times. Reduced to £60, need some Christmas money :)

Sorry already sold, will update post now.

The thing is what I described would be mild/moderate asthma that wasn't being controlled very well. Virtually all asthma sufferers will have gone through very similar experiences until they worked out how to manage it. 
Some people have much more severe symptoms than this and they can't get those symptoms under control with the dozens of different inhaler/drug combinations available. The most severe sufferers needing steroid injections to try to avoid life threatening asthma attacks.
I just can't believe someone with asthma so severe and so out of control, where steroid injections were considered the only option, could still be able to compete at elite level sport.
I guess I'm just f*cking angry that some athletes have used their mild/moderate asthma as an excuse to get an edge, mainly because they're taking the piss out of all asthma sufferers by doing so. But also sad because all athletes with asthma will now be doubted, most of whom deserve a medal for just making it to elite level sport and should be an inspiration for kids with asthma.

Sorry I tried to say an honest thing asthma, obvs not wanted!

I was 8 wtf?!!!

What?

I'm not sure people know what ashtma is. I was diagnosed with ashtma v young. I spent weeks not being able to do anything apart from walking slowly, otherwise my breathing was suffocating me.

When I was diagnosed (6yo) it got better with inhalers but when I had a flare up I was in a state of trying just to sustain breathing in a controlled manner (hard for a kid) but I learnt to keep calm until I got taken to the doctors/a&e to get on a nebulizer.

In between the controlled moments I literally had to stay immomobile and my parents had to carry me up stairs, because I literally had no breath to get me there.

Throughout my junior schools I was not allowed to carry my reliever inhaler, and had to go to the main office to have access to this. This I think still stands now :(. I learnt to stay still and learnt to stay calm, while not being able to breath properly until help came.

As I got older I learnt more about my triggers (many) and tried to avoid them. I've recently tried to do very low level competitive cycling in the last few years and it took me at least a year to just get over pushing myself to get out of breath, it was a massive psychological barrier. I've also had to take out weeks and sometimes months of riding because my asthma has flared up.

I guess what I'm saying is after all of this, is that the medication for my asthma never even touched needing a Tue (i looked it up).

Asthma is horrible and sadly people do die from asthma attacks.

I don't believe the cyclists who got the "asthma/allergic injections" was because of severe risk of dying from asthma attacks. But mostly if your asthma flare up is that severe, how the hell did you think you could ride a grand tour?

Ps Callum Skinner rules, as an asthma sufferer this rings true, and the right reaction:
