Dopers SUCK!

Man, I’m glad I’m just a recreational rider. If you’ve been following professional cycling, it is in a sad state of affairs. Landis and USADA trading jabs, Basso’s confession to ‘attempted’ doping and Ullrich’s retirement (geez, I wonder why he retired). My guess is that the pressure to perform lead these riders to cheat. So what does this have to do with Mountain Biking? Well, when we attended the Sea Otter Classic my favorite events where the Downhill Racing and the Dirt Jumping competition. Kind of hard to imagine that these riders that risk a lot more than professional roadies take performance enhancing drugs. Maybe the Versus channel should be focusing on these type of events than on a peloton full of dopers.
