Michael Boogerd is a perennial favorite at the Amstel Gold Race.

What year did he last finish off of the podium, and who were the top 3 finishers that year?

Alrighty.....

Q: Who was the first rider down the prologue ramp to kick off the 1990 Tour de France?

He's pretty famous.....

It's usually a celebrity (eg. Herman Meyer, a skier in 2003), or was that just a special event?

I'll throw in Merckx for the hell of it

So many to choose from. delgado, ovanov, millar, siboni, it's a cast of thousands (well 198, if you wanna be exact). Can't be Kelly, Fignon or Bauer coz their limelight was the 80's.

Ed this is hard for a fella who only got snippets of info from the ABC radio news every now and again!
