Like what intravenous?!
I guess most folks here will be happy with a nice strong espresso mid ride, and, those of us who use gels, with a caffeine gel toward the end of a sportive?
from wiki:
Caffeine is a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant of the methylxanthine class. It is the world's most widely consumed psychoactive drug. Unlike many other psychoactive substances, it is legal and unregulated in nearly all parts of the world.
Aside: when suffering from anxiety/depression some years ago, my therapist advised only drinking decaff as caffeine mimics the physiological effects of Anxiety.

it's all about money
look at Froome .... when he became the number 1 rider for Sky, (even though he had been sponsored by them for a while), his salary increased by 10 times ....
These guys are professional athletes .... it's their job and this is their only source of income plus they only have a few years when they will be at their peak .... so they want to cash in while they can
the same applies to any professional sport where stakes are high

Well, yes. Or via the lungs (smoked, snorted, vapourised). I can't think that anyone taking aspirin with the deliberate intention of destroying their stomach lining to absorb drugs more quickly would be squeamish about a needle.

Why would junkies eat junk? I think you misunderstand my post.

Obviously not. I assumed that you meant heroin, and that people deliberately damaged their stomachs before eating it.
What did you mean?

It wasn't body builders and I honestly I can't recall which drug it was, but no not heroin...it was probably either; acid, coke, speed, base speed, amphetamine, opium, mushrooms, hashish or alcohol.
For me and for others 'junkies' includes any drug addict.
Now I list them out I see you point, almost none of these are consumed or embibed.
. I remember when it was and where I was when I learned this but I can't recall the exact conversation. I'm now guessing it was alcohol, or less likely hash cakes.Yours tired,

Turns out coke and aspirin has a venerable history of being seen to have remarkable powers

I used to work with a guy who took it in tablet form.
Pro Plus tablets, amphetamines from a guy he knew, and the ephedrine from hay fever tablets.
If you ever look at a bodybuilding forum there does seem to be an opinion that most people would rather source prescription only steroids instead of prohormones for that very reason of testing.
It's amazing that they're legal over the counter.

With some lemon juice and it bring your bodies PH back away from acidic helping to keep the environment cancer likes at bay.
Back in the day people would use it to help stop the so called lactic acid, never tried it so no idea if it works.
