Everyone jumps on the bandwagon regarding

Cycling and to a certain degree I can understand given it's flawed history. But cycling now has the toughest and strictest tests. If someone in football was taking this drug it wouldn't even be reported and it's been clinically proven to have no performance enhancing. It does question how stupid Sky have been to let this occur but it is likely due to dehydration. That said they should've thought it through even if this is the reason. What annoys me as a cyclist and cycling fan is that when he wins a fourth TDF the majority of British press hardly give it acknowledgement but a whiff of drugs and they're all over it like a rash. Of course if anyone's caught using performance enhancing drugs and if there turns out to be anything dodgy about this then I'd never let my love of the sport stop me condemning it but it's a shame that other sports aren't subject to the same scrutiny and ithat the press don't balance the actual sport coverage against a possible drug violet.
