In drug testing no double standards the same, but the rod applied to cycling isby far the hardest. The “vampires”-the name given to the agents of the UCI that collect blood samples of riders-often act out of season and by surprise (by surprise means they can bring the subject out of bed at five in the morning-even if you wait after a period of seven mountain passes). The highestgoverning body of the sport, in collaboration with the World Anti-sponsored in 2008 the biological passport, a method to exhaustively analyze blood and urine levels of each passage. In one year, the UCI makes about eight thousand blood tests, most out of competition.
