Thanks for releasing this, it certainly helps with transparency. No results posted between January 30th and March?

This is awesome. Yet another reason Garmin-Slipstream is my favorite team in all sports.

Well done Brad & Garmin, this is the only way forward to ensure that we get the clean cycling that spectators and athletes like Brad deserve. Keep it up and sham ehte others into doing the same, then we”l get some real progress.

It’s great to see these numbers and they support the assertion that there is no evidence of nbolld doping – just don’t make assertions about trends that can’t be substantiated

While it is true to say that the trend is down in both races, it is impossible to see it the trend is statistically significant from this graph. I think it is very unlikely that the differences between the start and finish of the TdF are significant.

I agree with Shane. I would rather cheer for 100th place than cheer for a doper. Too bad the pistol will not even answer a question about his blood levels, let alone release them in such a transparent way as Wiggo has done.

In a sport that begs for transparency, this is what everyone should be doing. Well done wiggo and garmin!

Firstly, congrats to Wiggo and the team on a great TdF. Never had any doubts at all but good on you and Garmin for your transparency. Now let’s see the other teams do the same.

What Betsy said x10. Huge kudos to Wiggins for doing this. I’d rather he’d finished dead last than to find out he was a doper. It’s not right that riders should feel pressure from anyone to dope…be it sponsers, team-mates, whatever. As a fan, nothing is more sickening than pulling for your guy all the way up the mountain only to find out later he was a dopehead. Keep up the good work Garmin…all of you.

You didn’t need to publish to convince me, I was already certain. Otherwise, why would you be part of the Garmin team?

Good publicity move though, for the good of the sport, and what a psychological blow to anybody that was using other substances.
