On the topic of drugs in our sport , Why has nobody come out and talked about how this sport still has corporate sponsors that are drug distributors or a pharmaceutical firm ?
should AMGEN (there are others) be asked to leave the sport ? ( I am not saying they did anything wrong) I think it could be a good topic. I think we need to clean up the sport and I think is another thing that might need to be looked at.
I would love to hear a round table debate on your show or the spokesman on this.

Good point, since Amgen is the maker of an EPO product (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epogen). I will add this to our outline for the next episode of The Spokesmen.
The Trotify device would have been perfect a few years back when we did a Monty Python bike pub crawl. We had some costumes, but I wasn’t that creative, I just had four cans of spam in my bottle cages.
