    Everybody in the bike world is so doped up its unbelievable. Is there anybody who competes honestly?

    Hey Marcus, I have to agree. Dick pound seems to act like this is a new problem. But with all of the older riders coming out to clear their guilt, it is obvious that this is a problem that has been around for a long time. Cycleworld magazine has been running some articles of riders who are claiming to be clean racers. We should support these riders.
