Honestly lets face it we continue to see story after story of another cyclist doping. And its not just the average professional cyclist. You know the average professional cyclist is doing it to just keep up with the best who are doping and are being investigated or are already convicted and suspended. The list is unreal: David Millar, Tyler Hamilton, Robert Heras, entire spanish teams, possibily Lance Armstrong and Jasn Ullrich. I mean it is EVERYONE. Cycling has been known to be one of the biggest doping sports and these continued stories proves it. You would not have these stories continuously popping up if there wasn't some validity to the fact that these athletes dope and use performance enhancing drugs. And of course you hear every single athlete deny the fact they used performance enhancing drugs.
This is not not isolated to the cycling workd. The sport of running is also tainted. There is constantly suspicions of some athlete using or a particular performance being called into question. I think it should be legalized if it is under a doctors supervision. Its already rampant and will continue to be so why not just make it legit and allow doctors to safely and legally monitor it. Unfortunately endurance sports are going to be tainted by accusaitons and suspicions if we continue to go down the path we are currently travelling. We have the knowledge to enhance performance thru pharmaceuticals and medicine. We are at the crossroads that we need to legalize it as long as all athletes are carefully monitored. They are going to use it anyways so now it would be out in the open and no more suspicions and the athletes would be safer.
