The only time the Fleche was intresting before the last Mur. Though it was only intresting during the penultime ascent instead of the last.
That was probably the most doped performance of all time.
Do I really have to upload an Armstrong video, or what?
Cenghialta, Riis, Bontempi all were part of that team. The two latter will probably be in the team car's wednesday. Don't think Cenghialta found a new job after Acqua e Sapone.

A quick reminder of what you can achieve in Flèche when training harder than your opponents (and seeking marginal gains ?) :
Sky's classic season was seriously bad. I don't understand how marginal gains only applies to five guys from a team of 20 plus - Marco Pinotti
Oh lol that Gewiss team. Ferrari was the team doctor. After that race he was asked about EPO. He said "It's as dangerous as orange juice....not that we take it or anything"
That's when Berzin went from track rider who couldn't climb to LBL and Giro winner at age 24. Dropping Pantani on the mountain finish at Campitello Matese was especially hilarious. Oh the wonders of EPO. Then again Pantani himself was an EPO wonder, the stereotypical EPO superresponder. Along with Ullrich, Induráin and Armstrong.
Then he was in yellow and probably would've won the Tour in 96 if he hadn't come down with the flu.
Then he met a rich italian chick, started partying with her every night and never won another race in his life.

Yeah, definitely. In what year did he win LBL already ?

I was really wondering how he managed to win LBL & the Giro at 24, be rubbish for a couple of years and retire at 30.
Hard to call him rubbish
isso was talking about Berzin, if I understood his post correctly.
Indeed. Pantani was 28 at the time of his Giro win
