doping will never go away just as there will never be world peace, i'm sorry, but i just don't see it. they can even have two separate sports - one for the dopers to see how far the human body can be pushed beyond it's natural potential, and one for those who choose to compete naturally. this way everybody gets to do what's on their agenda, create severe penalties for those who try and cheat (i.e. doper to compete in "natural" races - penalty to expel that person from racing completely and indefinitely), and there aren't any of these stupid problems anymore.
i think they either need to separate the two or make penalties so severe that it discourages people altogether from doping. what's the harm in being on a 2 year suspension? what kind of point does that get across to others and children (the future of the sport)? - if you do something bad, illegal, and against the rules then you'll only have a slap on the hand suspension for a short period of time. i think that's a bad answer to a horrible epidemic problem.

"How about if we all just try to follow these very simple rules of the road? Drive like the person ahead on the bike is your son/daughter. Ride like the cars are ambulances carrying your loved ones to the emergency room. This should cover everything, unless you are a complete sociopath."
