months ago i called usada and left a message asking how we could fund more tests in cycling... this is in the long term plan of cyclesafe (my npo)and i began to gather info on what we can do to dontae funds to this end and to make it more affordable to events in the southeast... I NEVER GOT A CALL BACK...
so i called them again 2 months later and finally got to talk to somebody... first off i lambasted those idiots for not calling back... then i explained what we were looking to do... anf the lady said something like "we dont have any kind of way to do anything like that".. and i go well dont you have a way to come test if a promoter requests testing?... "oh yeah.. we can do that.." well thats what we are thinking of... i explain that we are woirking with events in other aspects anyway and we would also like to include dope testing in that and if there were any way to work this out we want to discuss it.. being as that there actually IS a way it can happen easily through promoter requests then lets talk about THAT... the USADA lady was UNINTERESTED...
so we left it that she would gather info on the existing protocol for drug testing through individual promoters that request it and how we could help that program to do more testing in the southeast and 2 and a half months later i have heard nothing.. i never got the impression that thery were at all interested... these people just arent serious... USADA my ass...

Here's what you do...
Get a white van (you can rent / borrow it). Get a bunch of USADA decals made up (the magnetic kind).
Get the Pro 1-2's lined up. make sure you have lots of video cameras running for this part...
Drive the USADA van up the street towards the start line, and pulls into the pit. At the same time the announcer announces "Hey, look, USADA is here - and the promoter has just told me that the top-10 and 10 random riders will be being tested today."
Watch hilarity ensue. Follwo the fleeing riders, and load the tape to YouTube.
see, this is why you have to know the right people to talk to. Otherwise, you're just going to end up hassling the same receptionist at USADA everytime you call--and Betty's getting on in years and can't really even hear that well. I'm suprised that she was able to even converse with you much less get across the point that she wasn't interested in what you had to say much less trick you into thinking she was going to look into it; but I guess that's Betty. SHe's old, and hard of hearing; but she's crafty-which was a really sexy song in the 80's when we hired her...
