Beloki plots comeback.

I predeict that Beloki will drift into anonymity. From what
he has said, it sounds like his crash was far too traumatic
to recover 100%. He still has nightmares? That's serious. At
30 something, he just doesn't have time to spend getting his
head back.

I Merckx, Sr. and Indurain show up and he beats them all,
he'll arguably be the virtual best rider ever.

This is another "I told you so" moment. Yes, I agree
with you, but I thought that when I saw his face on the
replays of his crash. I wrote in this newsgroup that it
was a career ender. Being involved in a devastating
crash myself, I know the scars it leaves also in the
mind. Nightmares, flashbacks, etc. You are no longer in
command. And what I got back was, "people crash all the
time, and it has no effect." How wrong they were.

Zabriskie was almost killed last Spring, and he's riding
again. It seems to depend on the individual.

them to fight in what would be an unwinnable urban guerilla war, it
