If people really want to clean the sport of cycling up, all you have to do is put your money where your mouth is.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
In fact cycling has always been 'saved' by judicial investigations and not by the anti-doping controls we put in place. That's the harsh truth. We have relied on them to clean the sport up.
It is cycling as a professional sport that represents the problem. It can transform someone into a liar.
To be brutally honest, it's simple economics. If they want to come into cycling, sponsors need to know the team they are funding is clean, otherwise the risk is just too great.
I came to the conclusion that I'm not going to give up cycling because some people are cheating.
Cycling is open to the whole world.
I have the impression that cycling is no longer a game but rather an employment... a job.
At the end of the day, cycling is a business, so we have to be able to offer something to a sponsor, and without exposure, that's going to be difficult, but that's where the UCI perhaps has to be a little bit stronger.
Cycling as a whole is totally underestimated.
I think racing and riding are two different elements of cycling. You either want to or not depending on what you want to get out of it.
Cycling is based so much on form, on aesthetics, on class - the way you carry yourself on the bike, the sort of technique you have.
