Not knowing the world of doping (which is what is implied by the investigation), I would have no idea what a rider would want to carry with him and presumably ingest during an actual race.

I mean, they are saying it's a "finishing bottle", and that actually sounds pretty bad. So whatever it really is ought to be more serious than what they are willing to admit right now.
4G data sounds about right

anal suppositories have always been popular. Usually caffeine
Looking for the "5K Kick"? tablets or quick liquid shots ingredients are B12/B6, taurine, caffeine, magnesium, creatine,
or whatever they have at the veterinarians' office..

A bottle of something uncomfortable laying on. Ketones might be right. Maybe that actually removed something that isnāt Nice to lay in. Doesnāt have to mean itās illegal.
If what you Think is ālets remove the illegal stuffā when your star rider crashes out from a bridge, youād have to have a Lance Armstrong kind of personality and no empathy whatsoever - dont believe it

Ah, I thought I read Velon wasn't at Lombardia, but that seems false.

Finish bottles are pretty common. I know one team that diluted ground up ibuprofen and caffeine for the last hour. Prior to that tramadol was a fav.

Iāve used finish bottles before. Final feeding opportunity Iād get a bottle with as much First Endurance Pre-race or other that I could stomach at that point in the race. š Maybe there is a reason I never made it to Europe. Honestly I think this is a non-story. Iām sure he wanted his pockets cleared before being strapped to a backboard.
Re: What v was Evenepoel carrying in his back pocket [Ohio_Roadie]

I disagree. I think that prior to being strapped to a backboard wondering whether he'll ever ride a bike again, his first thoughts should have been "I should leave everything in my back pockets so that lying on a backboard with a possible broken back (and numerous actual breaks) is way more uncomfortable, just in case someone on the internet thinks I'm hiding bad stuff".

So a #1 Pro cyclist has to mix his own drinks? Sounds a bit strange to me. I would expect him to receive a regular bottle with a different content, not a small bag he had to mix with a regular bottle.

As back up if only neutral service with water is available?

Have you seen the video? It does not look like a bottle at all. This is my own speculation, but I think it was a transponder which depending on which data he is transmitting is illegal. Bramati messed up first by saying that his data stopped transmitting, then he claimed he took gels, etc. from his pockets. Perhaps at this point he did no realize that there was a video, and in the video it shows he grabs only one object, the white thing.

or it could be something totally innocent like a wrapped rice cake which is very common... but a transponder is another illicit thing? I can not imagine that he would be involved in illicit consumption during a race he could have won. He and the team would know he would be in doping control minutes after finishing.

Agree, but really they won't be able to prove anything. He'll just stick to the story that it was something food related, and with regards to his comment about data, he can just say that he meant they stopped seeing footage of him on the tv cameras.......

You should watch the clip. I don't think he reached into the "pocket" you think he reached into.

OK, definitely not where I was going with this... just meant more a long the lines of not a "finishing bottle"

Even if it was a data transponder, I donāt really care. I think itās great the teams are doing this even if it is behind the UCIās back.
The UCI is 20 years behind the rest of the world with their rules. They should be pushing to have all the data the can and to be able to use that during broadcasts. Can you imagine if the FIA didnāt allow F1 cars to transmit data back to their teams until they had a pit stop or got back to the garage?
