Mark Cavendish said "It is frustrating. Our sport has been dragged through a lot, really dragged through the mud. It is always in the spotlight. It really winds me up. It's not only cycling, but this is a cyclist. We have to put up with the questions and everything. It's really disappointing."
Gold Medallist Bradley Wiggins said "if you get caught and you ain't got a helmet on, then how can you kind of argue"
