Doping has always been a tense issue in cycling probably
ever since people stated racing them in the 1800s.
Over the past month it has been three names that have kept
cycling in the news, for all the wrong reasons. Alberto Contador, Jan Ullrich
and Lance Armstrong have all been subject to doping investigations, which have
all come to some sort of conclusion.
So far, the results of all of these cases have pretty much
sent me to despair with the doping authorities. No matter if you believe they
are innocent or guilty, I don’t think anyone can be in any doubt that the
handling of these three cases has been nothing more than a shambles.
