To say that you would not immediately feel the effects of a testosterone patch is completely wrong. I just don't see why you would be stupid enough to risk taking it during a race because it takes a couple of days to get it out of your system. Guess Landis used a "magic" testosterone patch, then...all his tests after Stage 17 were clean. Sorry, dude...that dog don't hunt.
Give me a break...what experise do you bring to the table? You've offered nothing of value in this conversation other than your own uninformed opinion. The testosterone patch is used on a regular basis by pro athletes. The testosterone itself is not what is tested for in the drug test!!! It's the ratio to epitestosterone. Therefore, an athlete can take synthetic testosterone and off-set the effect on the ratio by masking it with epitestosterone.
Seriosuly, man, why don't you just stop talking at this point.
