My own ignorance of history got the better of me, and I wasn't alive for the 60's so I know I don't get it 100%. But if such a well-loved pro cyclist dies because of a problem, it would seem a more fitting tribute to actually face the problem, and I guess the impression that I get is that nobody really thought the drugs were a big deal.
