Turn pro cycling over to the guys who run the NFL. You know, sports suits who generally can shoot straight (the current inevitable labor dispute notwithstanding). And then see what happens. Not everything the UCI does is wrong, but moves like banning race radio, major race organizers who imperil rider safety and diminish a great race like the Giro with stupid course selection and race logistics, etc, that stuff hurts the sport. Biological passports, zero tolerance for doping by corporate sponsors, etc., that's all great. Please note the leading role some American sponsored teams are taking in this latter regard. Please note how well organized the Amgen Tour of California is.

It's common sense. They lack that in certain areas in Europe, we lack that in certain areas in the USA.
