From cyclingnews.com "Italian authorities are investigating former sprinting star Mario Cipollini for tax evasion. The sum in question is some five million Euros, according to the press agency sid. From 2000 to 2004, Cipollini claimed that his home was in Monte Carlo in order to avoid paying taxes in Italy, it is being alleged, although he never actually lived in Monte Carlo."

So Cypress you better slow down. Too many victories could make you "move" to Monte Carlo. :D :D You could, however, still post on the forum from here. :D :D

It's Italy gentlemen. Nothing a few well placed bribes or Mafia contacts won't resolve. If you don't believe that last comment, watch that recent 60 Minutes piece on the Mafia's influence over there. I'm sure Cippo can pull a string or two with all his contacts.
