The poor "Tour de France Champion" Marco Pantani nicknamed "The Pirate" was found dead in a hotel on saturday evening. Some sources say he smoked some crack, others say he commited suicide following all the doping allegations. Anyway! I know it's a bit late to post such news. But I was a fan of him & his name shud be mentioned on this board.  |

I've been a big fan of cycling for many years and I have fond memories of how he destroyed Jan Ullrich and the rest in the mountains in 1998 to take the tour title!!!
