If East Africans prove the same ability in cycling's more well known races, as they do in long distance track running? Will the West Africans, Jamaicans, Bahamians and even the black Britons, be able to show cycle sprinting success, as they have done on the track too?
I loved watching Seb Coe against Steve Ovett, and its been very different since the arrival iof the East Africans (Kenyans, Ugandans, Ethiopians). Will the tide turn, or will the Lance Armstrongs on Miguel Indurains of this world show that natural ability isn't everything, and technique and training win the day? I hope the challenges come in the next few years.
