Cyclists Will Have to find Other Ways to Cheat

Alright so cycling is not one of my favorites but over the years quite a few cyclists have been caught using illegal growth hormones and blood doping to gain unfair advantages during there races and thought it had reason to be discussed here.  The Association of Professional Cyclists and Professional Cycling Council recently met and proposed an automatic four-year suspension for cyclists found doping, using growth hormones, use of EPO and blood transfusions.  It's a start but someone will always be ahead of the testing and finding new ways to cheat the system and this sport.  Cheating cyclists, is it really worth it?

Vancouver 2010 Olympic Athletes Banned for Doping

A day before the Vancouver 2010 Olympics began the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) banned more than 30 athletes from competing.  Names of the banned have not been released at this point.  Pre-Olympic testing is pretty thorough and effective as some athletes didn't even show up.  Looks like WADA has done a good job of keeping the cheats out of the 2010 winter Olympics but I'm sure some athletes will still try to beat the system for any advantage they can get.
