    Bettini is [censored] because he wasn't informed on time Peta wasn't good.
    Otherwise he could have done more with the moves he was in.

    Dumbass -

    Those Italians always have to have some sort of intra-team drama going
    on at Worlds don't they?

    thanks,

    K. Gringioni.

  2. I agree but how on earth can he ever perform better than this year? He
    will never win a major tour. He should be able to make some progress
    in the more hilly classics. And he could take revenge for the bad luck
    during his pursuit of green jersey this year. Maybe riding a few days
    in yellow someday. But that's it.

    He's yet to turn 25 but he already has a career where 90% of the
    peloton is jealous of or can only dream of.

    Makes me wonder how special real champions are who keep on giving their
    best year after year when they've already reached so much.

    Boonen has said that he doesn't think he'll be racing as long as Museeuw or
    Tafi because he became the team leader at a much younger age than they.

    Yesterday on Belgian TV, co-rider and best friend Kevin Hulsmans on the
    other hand said that Boonen will still be riding for a very long time
    if he keeps performing the way he does. Only time will tell of course.

    Great win btw, my heart was pounding like crazy those last couple of
    minutes 🙂

    Most people wouldn't get that worked up over the possibility of
    a guy finishing second. Even so, Boogerd is a classy rider.

    dumbass,

    the put a lot more importance on the world championship than other
    nations. that's a contibuting factor.

    McEwen, Petacchi and Zabel (marking Peta) were all dropped when the
    Belgians regrouped and did that timely manoeuvre.

    Which timely manoeuvre?
