Mr 60%

Regarding the nickname "Mr. 60%" and "The earliest mention of the nickname can be traced to interviews with riders of Festina in 1998-2000", I believe I read about this nickname earlier than 1998 in an issue of Cycle Sport magazine (http://www.cyclesport.co.uk/)

I no longer hold any back issues so I can't give an exact issue number, but if someone does have old copies around and wants to flip through them, keep an eye out for this.

1996 olympics?

There is category "Cyclists at the 1996 Summer Olympics", but the only mention about Olympics is "When he was not selected for the 1984 Summer Olympics". Why not anything about 1996 Games? Even if he did not drive any races, there could be something about it? 86.115.105.204 (talk) 01:14, 4 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
