I hear you, but I still have a strong anarchist streak. A few years back when the whole ride clean thing started folks got really jacked up and beat their chests that things were changing. In both NYC and NJ a very big deal was made of it. In reality a handful of tests were done. Roughly 100,000 bikes crossed starting lines in the area that season. Based on the number of folks they caught I figure roughly 97% of the riders were doping.
