I can explain doping dangers to young riders, says Millar (Reuters)

David Millar, the former professional rider once banned for doping violations, aims to deliver a powerful anti-drugs message to Britain’s best young road prospects in his role as a mentor, he said on Wednesday. Millar, who retired from riding in 2014, is working on a voluntary basis with the men’s endurance academy program in Italy. “It’s been a bit of a controversial decision in some quarters because I am an ex-doper and I did cheat,” Millar told the BBC.
