The Spectator(@spectator):Here's a marginal gain for you, Union Cycliste Internationale. Show the millions of young people who look up to pro riders that you understand that peeing is natural and part of sport. Sport prizes the body: so should you, in all its aspects. Voiding postponement makes riders perform worse. Fining them makes you look vicious. Let them pee. ✍️ Rose George Article |
