Mechanical Doping

Most of you may not know this, but I am an avid cyclist and big fan of professional cycling. I don't have the time to ride half as much as I used to, but I still try to keep up to date with the professional racing news. We are now only a couple of weeks away from July 3rd, the start of the Tour de France in Rotterdam. The Tour de France is an epic three-week race, taking professional riders along the circumference of France.

Cycling is a sport very familiar with controversial stories and accusations. I found this today, a new motor able to power a bicycle to top speeds and be completely undetected. There are accusations that Cancellara used it in a recent spring victory, but I find that extreme.
