  • 91St SCHELDEPRIJS April 16
    91st SCHELDEPRIJS April 16 Robbie McEwen, Tom Boonen, Jaan Kirsipuu and…Frank Vandenbroucke: all those cycling stars are at the start of the race. 163 riders participate in the event. Several riders try to go in the break but nobody is able to increase the gap till four riders: De Weert, Lauder, Scanlon and Koerts attack and hold a certain advantage. Koerts is dropped when the riders enter Schoten, with two laps left to go. Servais Knaven is the next one to break but he is caught too. It is then Ludovic Capelle’s turn to go. This attack is the good one and thanks to his friend Kirsipuu’s good job, who perfectly controls the pack, he wins the race. Kirsipuu finishes the race in 2nd place.

  • 97Th SCHELDEPRIJS April 15
    97th SCHELDEPRIJS April 15 164 riders are present at the Antwerp Great Market Square for the 97th Scheldeprijs. A few days after he won for the third time in Roubaix, Tom Boonen was the big attraction on Antwerp Great Square. Mark Cavendish was not present at the start and as a consequence Tom was the only rider able to reach Oellibrandt’s record. Bernucci, Pronk, Brutt and Louder formed the traditional early breakaway and the maximum gap between the four breakers and the bunch reached 6’56”. A first crash involving Ciolek and Haussler amongst other riders took place at 40 km from the finishing line. At the entrance of the last local lap, the four leaders still had an advantage of 1’07”. Knaven and Hammond counterattacked but at 4 km from the line, the bunch was packed together again. Van Avermaet launched his sprint too early and Petacchi, without his teammates’ help, chose the right side of the road to come to the front in a very impressive way. Nothing and nobody was still able to defeat him when a very big massive crash happened just behind him. Robbie McEwen, Tom Boonen, Greg Van Avermaet and many other riders were the victims of that crash and made acquaintance with Churchill Avenue asphalt. Nobody was badly hurt except McEwen who suffered a brain concussion. It may seem incredible but that was Alessandro Petacchi’s first victory on Belgium territory except for Aalst Criterium. PARCOURS Antwerp, Great Market Square (officious start), Schoten (official start), St. Job, Brecht, Wuustwezel, Loenhout, Hoogstraten, Meer, Meerle, Minderhout, Merksplas, Rijkevorsel, Beerse, Lille, Gierle, Lille, Kasterlee, Tielen, Herentals, Vorselaar, Grobbendonk, Zandhoven, Ranst, Schilde, Wijnegem, Schoten (159 km) en drie lokale ronden van 16 km, totaal 207 km.

Tornado Tom’s Quick Step team-mates definitely wanted to give the best from the very first kilometers and they indeed did it as they attack after only twenty kilometers. After 100 km, the gap between the leaders and the bunch reached 1’25”. The bunch then stopped chasing. At 40 km from the finish, the gap reached 10 minutes. Quick Step squad imposed its law till the end and the world champion won his second Scheldeprijs in an amazing way.

  • 2012 Amgen Tour of California
    2012 Amgen Tour of California By Ron Parker with Yvonne Adan The Golden Gate Bridge in view from the start of Stage 2 Stage 2 Start by the Bay WOW!! What a week!! Yvonne and I spent a week following ALL the stages of the 2012 Amgen Tour of California. It was quite a trip. We went from Cloudy, Cool and Green Hills of Sonoma Coast to the Warm slopes of Santa Cruz Mountains. Then we went to the Crowded streets of Livermore to the Clear cool pines of the Sierras. Then we went to the Blistering heat and scorched fields of Bakersfield. We went from the Rocky outcrops of San Bernadino Mountains to the Bubbling creek on slopes of Mt. Baldy and finally to the Video Screens of LA Live. Fan relaxing in the Green Hills of Sonoma Luis Leon Sanchez(Team Rabobank) University of Michigan Fan urging on a Cioast checking out Levi Leipheimer Team Spidertech rider Stage1: We started by visiting my son, Sam, in San Francisco. Sam drove us up to Coleman Valley Road for the last KOM of the first stage. I found a spot about 100 meters before the KOM and a little above the road and waited for the riders. A Ralpha truck was setup and doing a roaring time by providing hot coffee for the spectators. A splintering break went by with the peloton fast on their heels. Luis Leon Sanchez veered over to the side of the road and did a double take checking out how Levi was doing. Various riders came by in groups until the broom wagon showed up.

    Questions about a Champion "If a misdeed arises in the search for truth, it is better to exhume it rather than conceal the truth." Saint Jerome. "When I wake up in the morning, I can look in the mirror and say: yes, I'm clean. It's up to you to prove that I am guilty." Lance Armstrong, Liberation, July 24,2001. "To deal with it, the teams must be clear on ethics. Someone crosses the line? He doesn't have the right to a second chance!" Lance Armstrong, L'Equipe, April 28, 2004. Between the World Road Champion encountered in a Norwegian night club, who sipped a beer, talked candidly, laughed easily and never let the conversation falter, and the cyclist with a stem, closed face, who fended off the July crowd, protected by a bodyguard or behind the smoked glass of the team bus, ten years had passed. July 1993. In the garden of an old-fashioned hotel near Grenoble, I interviewed Armstrong for three hours. It was the first professional season for this easygoing, slightly cowboyish, and very ambitious Texan. I left with a twenty-five-page interview, the chapter of a future book11 was writing about the Tour de France. I also took with me a real admiration for this young man, whom I thought had a promising future in cycling. Eight years later, in the spring of 2001, another interview. But the Tour of 1998 had changed things. Scandals and revelations were running rampant in cycling. Would my admiration stand the test? In August 1993, it was a happy, carefree, eloquent Armstrong, whom Pierre Ballester, met the evening after he won the World Championship in Oslo.
