'Dale Posted March 31, 2012 Share "...We were all intimidated. We were. This kid just arrived, this big, handsome Belgian kid with high cheekbones – the face of an immense athlete – and pretty quickly we all realised that on the bike he was a brute. […] He used to drive me nuts. When he was racing, you knew that he could put you out of the time limit any time. It was a constant, breathless chase. You’d see Merckx’s team on the front ready to make the race 150 kilometres from the finish, Van Den Bossche, Van Den this, Van Ben that – they all surged to the front – and he’d be pawing the ground like this big tiger. He couldn’t wait for the moment, kilometre X, when he would attack and smash us all to pieces. I used to tell him to go stuff himself. When you’re hurting, you turn nasty. I’d be shouting from the back of the bunch, “Vaffanculo, Merckx! Bastardo!” Half of the peloton detested him despite thinking that he was an OK bloke […] I say we all realised quickly but it wasn’t straight away. It took a while, a couple of years. We, we didn’t know, we didn’t...’For once even Dino Zandegù is lost for words." Eddy Merckx The Cannibal is available online at Amazon.

Bronabee Posted April 2, 2012 Share Run Forest That happened to me when I was in Mozambique - Maputo. I had a sprite and they all surrounded me asking for my sprite. I was young at the time – 12. So I felt brave and said, ‘’no!’’ but my ma did save me. She grabbed me and just pulled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
