Winning the yellow is truly a prize but finishing consistently in the top 10 is amazing.<BR/> <BR/>In recent years the Ulrich story has always amazed me for someone who came so close so many times. Finishing in yellow only once, five times in second and once in third, he always gave Armstrong a serious challenge.<BR/>JackAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18899086.post-43804820644955093602007-12-18T13:56:00.000-05:002007-12-18T13:56:00.000-05:00So Ron....what is the link to your blog?And where ...So Ron....what is the link to your blog?<BR/><BR/>And where are the great Maltese cyclists?????Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18899086.post-25532457250167806302007-12-18T07:37:00.000-05:002007-12-18T07:37:00.000-05:00When I read of Pou Pou and Anquetil, I recall Copp...When I read of Pou Pou and Anquetil, I recall Coppi and Bartali's rivalry. That was one that literally divided a nation, north and south. Its interesting that early European sports figures caused such a stir among public. Even now, major sports like soccer and cricket are likely to divide fans from entire countries.<BR/><BR/>As much as I love the sport of cycling, it is very personal to me. I wouldn't be one of those die hard fans to create idols out of living people. Its not me. Its interesting to talk about on the other hand, because our personal stories don't quite fill the void we have for cycling culture, history and traditions.<BR/><BR/>Its time you took a hard look at my blog and maybe add it to your links :)Ron Georgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18394865788996482667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18899086.post-39466026555606937812007-12-17T00:25:00.000-05:002007-12-17T00:25:00.000-05:00The French love the underdog.
