I don’t doubt for a minute that there are drugs being taken in the peloton. Sure lighter bikes better equipment better fitness better diet, all these help but when you get records falling like in 2024 it’s impossible to imagine drugs aren’t being taken. When there’s so much riding, (excuse the pun) on victory and pressure from sponsors it’s simply too tempting. I don’t mean banned substances/drugs I mean substances that haven’t yet made the band list, drugs that haven’t made the band list. Question: is it cheating if a drug/substance or process is not on the band list? My thoughts are, if it’s not cheating, it’s certainly unsportsmanlike but if it’s technically not cheating, can you blame a rider?
