And btw, Bos will probably not get suspended anyway. Luckily in the real world, people are not so easily influenced by a moronic English commentator like on that video

But seriously, Phinney won a TT stage in some small race in Luxembourg and velonews is fawning over him like he's the next Lance, look at his competition:
1. Taylor Phinney Trek - Livestrong
2. Marcel Kittel
3. Simon Zahner Rendementhypo Cyclingteam
4. Michael Christensen Glud & Marstrand Horsens
5. Jempy Drucker Team Differdange Apiflo Vacanzes
6. Christian Poos Team Differdange Apiflo Vacanzes
7. Jesse Sergent Trek - Livestrong
8. Sander Oostlander Asito-Craft Cyclingteam
9. Dirk Muller Team Nutrixxion Sparkasse
10. Kevin Soller
yeah, he rode well, but really, thats not the toughest competition I've ever seen. Besides it was short, perfect for a track racer.

, but Vino also won 4 Days in Dunkirk as a neo-pro in 1998
Wasn't an Hors Category race back then. Also, Vino was a neo-pro in 97. 98 was his second season

So, just returned from Olympia's Tour. There was quite some wind which made the pack split, and a group of about 8 riders held their advantage over the first pack. Mostly known riders in the break where Marco Bos, Jetse Bol and Christopher Stevenson. The last one won after an amazing solo effort in the last +- 5km. He held about 10 seconds which was enough to takeover the jersey from Rabobank to Capinordic.
Maybe I'll upload some pics later on: first I'm gonna watch the Giro

Thoose guys he beat ain't bad Marcel Kittel is one of biggest cycling talents in germany right now and is great on TTs, Michael (Færk) Christensen is a part of the danish team pursuit team, so they aren't bad, they are just 'unknown'.
