Theo Bos himself
De reacties op de valpartij in de Ronde van Turkije liegen er niet om. Op youtube is te zien hoe ik naar het lijkt met opzet een valpartij veroorzaak. Zelfs Lance Armstrong laat weten dat ik voor lange tijd geschorst moet worden. Een reactie die ik volledig begrijp als je de beelden en het commentaar daarbij bekijkt. Natuurlijk heb ik ze zelf ook tot in de treurnis bekeken. Van bovenaf is het moeilijk te zien en lijkt het alsof ik hem van de fiets af trek. Ik zit er echter volledig opgesloten waarbij ik links de hekken in wordt gedrukt en in de reflex niet anders dan probeer hem in een uiterste poging van me af te houden. Op dat moment de enige optie zo de valpartij juist te voorkomen. Met mijn voorwiel raak ik volgens mij de poot van het dranghek en sla onmiddellijk samen met Impey onderuit. Iedereen die mij goed kent weet dat ik nooit opzettelijk het risico zou nemen op dergelijke wijze een valpartij te veroorzaken. Waarom zou ik heb mezelf er ook mee. Ik sprint jaren op het hoogste niveau op de baan. De keirin staat bekend om het trek en duwwerk, het nemen van risico's. Maar let wel: juist ik sta in dit wereldje niet bekend als een sprinter die extreme risico's neemt. In Japan dank er zelfs mijn bijnaam aan. Het zit niet in mijn karakter. Ik ben hier goed ziek van.
Met de overstap van de baan naar de weg koos ik bewust voor de continentale ploeg van Rabobank. Dit om in de luwte het vak te kunnen leren. Ik zit er niet op te wachten op deze wijze te boek te staan. Vanzelfsprekend ben ik ook mijn verhaal aan Barloworld gedaan. Ik heb oprecht te doen met Impey en heb aan de ploeg aangegeven graag met hem in gesprek te gaan mijn kant toe te lichten. Ik heb geen reden voor hem weg te lopen, maar begrijp dat hij kwaad is. Ik voel me klote op deze manier in het nieuws te moeten komen. Ik wil als sportman laten zien dat ik anders in elkaar zit. Dit zit me dwars. Ik hoop dat er meer beelden zijn. Misschien kunnen de beelden naast elkaar gelegd worden en beeld voor beeld worden geanalyseerd. Ik heb er alles voor over te bewijzen hier niets aan te kunnen doen. Het is nooit mijn opzet geweest. Zelfs niet in het heetst van de strijd. Ik zal iedereen moeten overtuigen dat ik mijn sprints anders win. Ik hou van deze sport. Sport is op het scherpst van de snede. In alle opzichten hoort daarbij fair play. Meer is het mij niet
Google:
The responses to the fall in the Tour of Turkey speak for themselves. On youtube to see how it seems to deliberately cause a fall. Even Lance Armstrong know that I long to be suspended. One comment that I fully understand if the pictures and the comments it looks. Of course I have them also to the sadness views. From above, it is difficult to see and it seems as if I were him pull off the bike. However I'm completely locked up where I left the gates is pressed and the reflex not but try it in a final attempt by me to keep. At that moment the only option as the right to fall. With my front wheel hit me in my leg of the dranghek and turn immediately with Impey bottom. Anyone who knows me knows that I never intentionally take the risk in such a way to cause a fall. Why would I have myself also. I sprint years at the highest level on the job. The keirin is known for its tensile and duwwerk, taking risks. But please note: I am right in this world is not known as a sprinter who take extreme risks. In Japan even thank my nickname. It's not in my character. I'm here sick.
With the transition from runway to the road, I chose deliberately continental team Rabobank. This shelter in the box to learn. I'm not to wait for this book to them. Obviously I am my story Barloworld done. I sincerely do with Impey and have indicated to the team like him talking to my side to explain. I have no reason for him to run away, but understand that he is angry. I'm fucking this way in the news to come. I would like sportsman show that I otherwise dimensioned. This is me cross. I hope that more images. Perhaps the images next to each other and frame by frame analysis. I got everything to prove Nothing to be done. It has never been my intent. Not even in the heat of battle. I will have to convince everyone that my sprints else win. I love this sport. Sport is on the cutting edge. In all respects this is fair play. That's not me |

Now that it has been established that McEwen's sprint experience is of some value, what about now that he's saying that Bos should get suspended? Let me guess, now he's an idiot too...

look just let the UCI pass somesort of punishment, 1 year too long, 3 months too long, 1 month is OK.
I think a financial punishment is the best option here (maybe 100 swiss francs + some sort of money to Impey, he's badly injured)
There's no point slapping a schleck - Sean Kelly on "Who needs a slap"

Oh come on. Read better. McEwen says IF suspended. And even then only one month.

I dont see a money transaction as any way of making it up to Impey. As if pain can be bought away. |

I said compensation (like the Insurance companies pay out when you have a car accident etc.)

I read it has "if Bos gets a 1 month suspension then he should just keep quiet and accept it".
That's the way I interepeted it.

compensation/making it up/whatever. I find it wrong to deal with money in such a case. |

In english the often used expression "If you get X take it" is usually used when someone offered or suggested a fantastic deal that should be accepted immediately without negotiation.
Maybe australians use it differently, so who knows.

probably Ventoux is in preparation for Le Tour.
Oh also I think that Armstrong wants a win there more than a Tour win. I remember that he said that is the only place where he wanted to win but never did it.

Yeah, TdS route is also very interesting.
And Cervélo is a Swiss-based team, so that's normal |
