Delgado was a great rider duing his time. But Delgado's doping record

His name is actually Deldopa.



I think that Delgado does make some good points. Certain substances
should be allowed if they are used for medicinal purposes. Naturally a
use would have to be by prescription and reported to the UCI. The
medical condition would be to be verified by a UCI appointed doctor as
well.


Dude, are you lucid? TUE's are a loophole for using bannned substances
and WADA is trying to close them every year (asthma, etc.). What is it,
like 60% of pro cyclists claim to have diagnosable asthma. Since when
does a prescription by a medical doctor mean the purpose of its use is
not performance enhancing?



Since when does the fact that something is performance enhancing mean that it
shouldn't be prescribed.


Why? Because every athlete in the world will then be claiming to their
doctor that they suffer from ailment "X", as has already occurred with
asthma. In most cases doctors diagnose patients with whatever they want
just to get them out of the room.

Stop being so idealistic.
