fuente

ive been fascinated by his name all the way. the fascination starts decades ago, when fuente was the name of a great grimpeur. the sound of his name klings to this rider. to me at least. this day - in 38 degrees celsius i spain. he didnt do as well as he wanted to do. the same scenario was often evolving around josé manuel fuente.

hi speed la vuelta

after etapa 10 of la vuelta 09 i met up with jakob fuglsang at the saxo bus.

'hombre, that was a close one' i said to him.

'you cant imagine how hard it is jakob' he said, and drove away to the hotel on his bike. he didnt even bother to go on the bus.
