Rider of the Year 2003 - Most Promising Rider - Most Disapointing Rider
"Nick Burns" wrote in message m... Sure, he's most improved, was very consistent, yada, yada. His accomplishments still don't match those of the other three. No Grand Tour wins, No World Cup wins, no feats that haven't been done for 30 years. He is the best this year at: what? One day racing? No. Stage racing? No. Sprinting? No. Most UCI points? No. Wins all the big races? No. Wins some Classics? No. Most consistent? Could be. Him or Bettini. Sorry, doesn't cut it. I think he is most consistent over Bettini because he achieved his over stage racing and single day events (plus I was thinking he won a WC event in the spring, am I wrong?) Let's say he's most consistent. That's the only thing he was the best at. That's not rider of the year, IMO. The rider of the year should have done something a little extraordinary. Petacchi, Bettini, PvP.

How about arguing the Ride of the Year? I think Heras' mountain time trial in the Vuelta is a pretty good candidate.
