Convincingly, too, by about a bike-length over Zabel and another three over third-place Boonen.
Beautifully done. Any predictions as to how many he will pull down by the end?
please refrain from giving away results in header. a simple "Stage two results" would have been
better. I was just about to go to cyclingnews.com and slowly go through the summary when I saw your
header. a small thing but does help. Gary

But who has the most GT stage wins in one season?
and who are you to confuse people with these wrong guidelines? The standard is to put top 3 in the
header. Make it up by contributing this very Vuelta pls.

Jeez - rbr encourages results in headers so we don't have to read the mince in the body.

Quiz - from Eurosport today - I'd forgotten how many he'd won that year - frightening...

I didn't know about his current circumstances - doesn't sound good. He is one of my all time heroes
- along with his lead-out man from those days. Another one who is difficult to understand - but that
didn't stop him getting a job commentating on Eurosport....

So is it the type of quiz where you actually provide an answer, or do you just assume everyone knows
the answer and start talking about him, therefore having no point to the quiz at all?
