Default Iban Mayo

He went from beating LA on Mont Ventoux in the 2003 Dauphine Libere to a 6th place finish in the 2003 TdF to the biggest dissapointment in 04, 05, 06, and now a contender in this TdF.
What is up with this guy?

Stephen Roche also denies anything written in 'Rough Ride' by Paul Kimmage is true!

Roche went off on a weird one yesterday talking about how so many top climbers suffer from depression and commit suicide. It was like he thought it might be caused by too much fresh mountain air or something.

Ahh...do you expect Iban himself to answer your post? You definitely aren't going to get many answers from us are you.

Your guess is as good as mine, maybe its a new team, less pressure from the basque fans...who knows.

Its still quite exciting to see this guy ride aswell as he is now.

German authorities said Tuesday they have received documents from doping expert Werner Franke which he claims show Tour de France winner Alberto Contador was involved in doping.
