This is what those ‘amnesty’ deals will look like for pro riders:
Under the pact, Dutch riders and staffers have until April 1 to come clean on their respective pasts [but not completely clean, of course]. Riders or staffers who confess to doping practices prior to 2008 will be issued six-month bans and fined two months’ wages. More severe bans of up to four years would be imposed for those who don’t confess during the amnesty window, but are later exposed.
And if anybody confesses to doping after 2008, the entire world will explode. So don’t do that, riders.
This whole thing is completely ridiculous. Stick a fork in it.
