Tomorrow I plan to go get a tattoo of the Union Jack on my face to commemorate the Battle of Britain.

Thanks for the heads up!
I'm far from an expert on anything, but I guess I'm trying to say that I doubt there is anything specific to, say epo, that would make someone reach for the blow.
Again, I'm guessing, but I think there are a lot more factors at play.
I've read before that cycling releases endorphines that simulate the experience of being high. And as someone who has experience both in intense training and, uh, being high, it really makes sense.
I'm far removed from training 600 km per week, but I remember feeling withdrawls when I took a day off the bike.
Is cycling a gateway drug?

Not made up sick like Tyler H. I mean off the deep end kind of sick.
All it takes is for me to take one long hard look at that tatoo....

Seriously, (well I guess not too seriously) the kind of hopped up screwballs who are drawn to riding a bicycle 30,000 kilometers a year are oftentimes the same kind of people who like to injest these substances. What can you say?
