I actually tought he was clean, didnt see any reason to suspect him, but might be a bit the same like with Kohl, didnt see that comming either. Probobly because they look like you can trust them.

I am with you...power riders.
I add Ullrich, Voigt.. Some one thinking bäähhh..booring guys who is not dancing in the pedals when they climb. But waching this power in flat and in the mountains is amazing. |

his personal dokter is Luigi Cecchini. a few other riders with a reputation are also patients of him.
basso,
hamilton,
jackse,
millar,
petachi,
scarponi,
ullrich,
bjarn riss
the connection with this dokter is one of the reasons why rabobank and dekker split up. rabobank wanted to make the team clean after the rasmussen case

i like the races with finish on top of a small climb (amstel,fleche,lbl) in the next tdf there is a beautiful stage on top of the olympic mountain in barcelona. the favourits are freire and kirchen. a stage sprint that cavendish can't win.

It'll be a beautiful stage only if Pozzat doesn't win

I'm a fan of underdog climbers/stage racers.
Those you know they won't be able to last with the very best on the decisive moments but once in a while they actually make you remmember why you are a fan of them like Kreuziger, Chavanel...
Risky riders are one of my favs as well: Voigt, Augé...

I like the offensive riders. Remember Vino won the Vuelta once, by attacking and attacking and attacking once again. Sure, he was probably doped, but it was fun to watch.

I really like Gilbert, just for his mentality on attacking. Also starting to like Dan Martin. Armstrong and Big George. |

The power riders who can also climb: Ullrich, Voigt, T. Martin, LL Sanchez, Larsson, Cance. Also the complete riders that can win in different races like Kirchen, Gilbert, Boasson Hagen. One of main factors for me to be a fan is the class of the cyclist on the bike like Kreuziger and some of the above. |
