Damage to the image of the sport?! The one that constantly has people cheating and being stripped of their medals? Oh yeah, wouldn’t want to ruin that!
Remember when they stripped Lance of his win, and they were going to award it to the next place finisher who didn’t also cheat, but they didn’t have one?

The governing body said the fine was for “unseemly or inappropriate behaviour during the race and damage to the image of the sport”.

How dare you promote love during a race you shameless piece of shit. The bicycling community will not recover from this for decades.
