AS es testigo de la búsqueda de motores en las bicis del Giro
ABSTRACT:
In two days, we have analyzed the bikes trial of 198 participants and alternates machines .
So far, we have Femke van den Driessche (Belgian U23).
PERSONAL OPINION:
I think it should not be necessary to do this type of thing because competitors should be
honest, they are those who work hard and train because they like the sport and there are
those who like to reach the goal by the fastest way and this is not always legal.
