RG> Did you realize that Pantani climbed the Alpes of d'Huez at 17 miles
 RG> an hour!! That is incredible. There was no one that could folow him
 RG> not even Virenque.
Geez!  You have to admit thats amazing, seeing how he just recovered from his 
sccident.  I'd be lucky to keep that pace for a few minutes uphill (I'm a 
flat-lander, and don't have to do much, if any serious climbing).
  I'm glad he won that stage.
