    WTF? Are we supposed to believe guys dope only for prize money or
    contractual bonuses, and not to cash in on their next contract? As a
    factual matter, are there cyclists with hugely incentive-laden
    contracts of the sort that are banned in baseball by the commissioner's
    office (they'll let reasonable bonuses get by, but it generally can't
    be a huge chunk of your contract)? Insights into this one appreciated.

    See http://www.uci.ch/imgArchive/Publications/CodedeconduiteENG.pdf

    It's "supporting", not "sporting", i.e. it doesn't touch riders' bonuses
