Best Male road rider
 |
Here's a hard decision: do you choose Mario Cipollini's stellar season, with wins at Milan-San Remo, Gent-Wevelgem, Giro and Vuelta stages plus the World's or Lance Armstrong's carefully-planned and perfectly-executed Tour #4 and lead-up victories in the Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré and GP Midi-Libre?
Perhaps acknowledging the elements of drama and fun that accompany Super Mario, you awarded the Italian sprinter Best Male Road Rider by a double-handful of votes, with Lance Armstrong a close second.
Rounding out the top five, though a long way behind, are Johan Museeuw, Laurent Jalabert and Santiago Botero, all of whom have undeniably shone this year.
