"It's better I don't talk to avoid saying something bad. The rules almost don't exist in cycling," Riccò said.

Cant wait till the twit is racing again and we can expect these gem quotes on a regular basis.
Take care of the luxuries and the necessites will take care of themselves.

    He is a complete idiot. Luckily we've still got another year of peace before he makes his comeback.. Hopefully he'll be banned again shortly after.

    He confessed to what he did and said he'll return with humility. That's a lot better than most others.

    Ricco is young enough and brash enough to actually make a go of his comeback. Kinda like David Millar.

    Saw him on the Petit St Bernard on the day of the Tour stage this year adn yes, he does look like a bleached blonde rat.

    i prefer his kind of racing even if it was drugged up

    but he got caught a couple of times as a junior for doping as well as now so it might be hard for him to change his ways

    said he'll return with humility

    Not really heard much humility or remorse from him, I seem to find that there is a difference between david miller who obviously deeply regretted his actions, went off the rails because of them then turned himself around and fought very hard to make up for what he did - and people like ricco who just seem pissed off they got caught,
