    Better than being picked up by Ann Widdecombe.

    Thanks for that. Now I've got to try and bleach my brain.

    There is an article on Bellis on the Velonation website:

    It looks like he still has some way to go to get up to the level required, but hopefully he will get there in the end. He is still young, so has time on his side.

    Good article about him in this month's Pro Cycling.

    There is.

    Didn't realise he was so young! (23)

    I really hope that he can get his career back on track , would be a huge achievement after his accident.

    Agreed. Pleased for him that he's been picked up by An Post, although Saxo did stand by him when he had his accident.

    Saxo do like to stick by their riders when they have had an 'accident'... :wink:

    Kelly's expectations of Bellis:

    “I don’t think we can expect anything from Bellis until the latter part of the season,” says Kelly of the former Saxo Bank starlet.

    “That’s going to be a slow process. In March he’s going to ride some of the inter club races in Belgium and we’ll see how he comes along. It’s impossible to forecast how he will improve but I don’t think we will see much of him for the first part of the season but hopefully he will start coming back to himself in the latter part of the year.”

    Sounds exactly what Bellis needs just now- to get some racing under his belt with no unrealistic expectations
