Doping in pro-racing is risky because the race authorities are constantly looking to catch riders doing it.

But what about in amateur racing? Like races that YOU can participate in. Many of these still have cash prizes and awards that people strive to win and obtain.

But riders could easily use performance-enhancing drugs because no one is checking for it.

Is doping a bigger problem locally than it is in professional bike racing?
 
As far as I'm concerned, doping is a very big problem in all sports. It shouldn't be allowed in any way possible and those who do are shitty human beings with no dignity.
