The most high-profile accusations of motor-doping at some of the sport’s biggest events happened between 2010 and 2014, in which you will be well-versed. They are among many unproven and strenuously denied allegations, but they are rumours that have only had their fans flamed by the fact that the UCI, cycling’s world governing body, didn’t have any specific tests in place to detect motors until January 2016 (save for the odd roll out of an x-ray machine…
