[QUOTE="Bada-Bing!, post: 868600, member: 70552"] Interesting read, but old as it dates back to 2008. I will give the benefit of the doubt to Bolt until proven otherwise. I like to think, however, sceptical I can be, there is a little bit of nativity within me that still wants to believe he is clean. You say zero chance of him being clean but this doesn't take into account what a freak Bolt was at his peak and that he can cover the 100 metres in 41 strides compared to the average of his competitors who run it in 45/46 strides. And match the frequency of the strides of his competitors. That's what gave him the distinct phyisiological point of difference, which his competitors could not match when he got into his full stride between 50 and 85 metres. Maybe it is a conspiracy to hide Bolt's "cheating", for if ever proven he is using, it would be the final nail in the coffin for athletics and the 100m. They should keep hold of his urine, blood, Biological passport long after he's retired and test it when testing techniques catch up. [/QUOTE]
