    You can bet if this was a russian doc Britain would be calling for Russia to get a lifetime ban from cycling.

    But when I kept saying that team Sky are cheats everyone used to have a go at me, calling me crazy in all these comments
    Cycling has been build on doping, some teams are clean but have no chance, it's more of a race of pharmaceutical companies other than to race fairly

    Here we go again. Are there any honest national sporting associations that have not been implicated and convicted in unsportsmanlike antics? I give up following these cheaters. It seems that the more skillful the competitors the greater the likelihood of wrongdoing. Sad.

    Dave Brailsford should carry the can for this and lose his knighthood and face prosecution for cheating..We now need to know which riders cheated and they should be stripped of their own titles, they are an utter disgrace to cycling ,and as for Shane Sutton he is a spineless liar.
