Yes, that's right, and I think cycling takes it a lot more seriously than other sports. Fairly sure for instance that it's a lot more common in football than we're led to believe. I mean Dravids and Stam aren't thought of as dopers, yet both were caught taking nandrolone. Are we to believe they're exceptions? Given the physical demands on players now I'd be amazed.
I'm waiting for a big footballer to reveal the level of doping in the sport, no doubt in his autobiography.
Just like Jose Canseco in baseball, he claimed 80% of players were on steroids. Even went on say which players he injected in his own team, big stars like Mark McGuire and Jason Giambi, who all denied it at first but later admitted taking steds.
