Here he is talking about the pledge, Riders Commitment to a New Cycling.
"This document offered to the cyclists an opportunity to give their personal
engagement against doping. Whether they signed it or not did not at the end of
the day matter [as regards their participation]. But from the point of view of
the UCI, we are obviously very concerned that some riders have not signed it."
So is this like the story the Japanese fighter pilot told, how one day there was
an announcement that "everyone volunteering for kamikaze duty should write his
name on a piece of paper and hand it to his commanding officer. Anyone not
wanting to volunteer is to write his name on a piece of paper and hand it to his
commanding officer."

What happens if you write some other person's name on the paper?
Tojo, or the commanding officer.

Precisely. Too bad that the riders are in such a poor negotiating state of
