Well, nobody seems to put his money on
Van Petegem... Still I think he's going to
be very close. He has been in Athens already
in the beginning of the year to check the
parcours. The olympic race is one of his main goals
this year. About McEwen: Although the race is
only 210 km long, the repetitions of the steep
climb will probably be to hard for him.
