As a cyclist I have been dealing with Performance enhancing drug (PED) issue long before the current news.
I have read a lot of the threads and Diamox seems to be encouraged.
Does anyone consider this drug to be performance enhancing? Just send Joe/Jane couch potato up the hill, take drug before, during and after. No problem. And don't say well "I have a RX." Also, I did not buy the making $$ thing. I am a Master who races for T-shirts and cliff bar. It just seem to me we live in a society that jumps on athletes not to do drugs and then it is not even talked about here where every other newbie is popping Diamox like it is Halloween candy.
Flame away if you want. I am interested in the views. And I am leaving today to go to Nepal. Same thing is said take Diamox and go to EBC...
