Levine blames a contaminated supplement...no excuse - it’s still a doping violation, but to compare it to the systematic state controlled doping system run by the Russians is a little disingenuous.

So the non Russian doping is not state run but private sector?

Team Sky?
Alberto Salazar?



Names like Wiggins, Froome, Radcliffe and Farah with suspicion dripping from their bios?

Sand.....Head......Plunge

Oh and that supplement excuse was very last decade

Interesting times for British cycling. Yesterday I learned about Team Huub. Some cartels being challenged at last. I wonder if the same could happen in GB rowing. It happened in the 1980s with NCRA.

edit:
And on the same day McLaren (of Formula 1 fame) announce 50% stake in Merida cycling team
