He will be missed, if not on the results pages then on the roadside and in the hearts of fans.
You're absolutely right. Purely based on style, Pozzato was my favourite along with Andreas Klöden and Frank Vandenbroucke. Not that many super stylish guys left. Valverde looks good, but not as smooth as the aforementioned. Luis Leon Sanchez and Bob Jungels aren't too bad either.chiocciolis_calves said:LiquidCrystalDynamic said:Pozzato hangs up the bike.

Or Gustavo César Veloso, Stijn Devolder, Rubén Plaza, Svein Tuft, Luís Felipe Laverde, Paco Mancebo, Rinaldo Nocentini, Sergio Paulinho, Radoslav Rogina, José Serpa or Óscar Sevilla.RedheadDane said:*Assuming Rebellin doesn't land himself a new WT contract.
Broccolidwarf said:Lars Bak of DD said today he is riding his last season, after finishing his 20th and last GT.
He says it is getting too difficult to make a difference, and too hard to find the motivation.
