Cycling Tosh Van der Sande (28) would want to scream — and actually he does that a bit: “I’m not dopingzondaar!”, he stresses emphatically. After a month of worrying and fretting as a result of a different dopingplas he may finally speak frankly. As an honest man. How difficult were the past few weeks?

“At the time that I was informed that something was not right with my urine sample came my heaven and earth in each other. I didn’t understand how that could be. I saw the bad in. That e-mail from the UCI, that registered letter: you don’t want to get.”

Your attorneys Johnny Maeschalck and Kristof De Saedeleer were, from the beginning, however, very clear: this was a simple case and it would be good.

“Yes, but I am still by the hell gone. I’m of the new generation. I want to be as clean as possible to cycling. For me that is the biggest drama: my name is advocates against. How do I clear ever? While there is not much going on. That turned out to be happy quickly. There is a super small dose of a product that is not even forbidden in my urine found. You just need to notify you that you have used. And I have the wrong name specified. I use two nasal sprays and I’ve made a mistake of brand.”
