Euskaltel's Rider Accident

When exactly is this spat of accidents going to come to an end?

The riders of the Euskaltel Euskadi team have been involved in a series of serious accidents in the last couple of years.

First it was the terrible crash (under rather suspicious circumstances) suffered by Joseba Beloki in the Tour de France 2003.

Then came the one by Iban Mayo in that godforsaken cobbled road in the Tour de France 2004, the one that exposed a certain scumbag as someone that does not believe in concepts like chivalry or sportsmanship.

Today, sadly, Alberto López de Munain fell and hit the guard rail face first while competing in the Giro d'Italia.

The Daily Peloton reports that he is in good conditions now, taking into consideration the gravity of the accident.

Enough of it, please.
