		In 1965, toen Felice Gimondi tegen alle voorspellingen in triomfantelijk de Tour de France won, was Merckx - later zijn grote rivaal - juist prof geworden.
		Gimondi was niet alleen een perfect ronderenner, die de drie grote Ronden op zijn naam schreef (in 1968 de Vuelta), maar ook in eendagswedstrijden speelde hij een hoofdrol.
		Felice Gimondi was één van de grootste wielerkampioenen van na de Tweede Wereldoorlog, die alleen kon worden gestuit door een sublieme Merckx.

	Gimondi talks about his career
		Gimondi had his appointments cancelled and had thought to call me to tell me he could see me the day after.
		Gimondi explained to me that this was the jersey that every Tour de France winner had for the centenary of the Tour, with the signatures of all the living winners.
		I had somebody waiting for me outside Gimondi's office but he wanted to offer me a coffee and to introduce me his daughter, a very nice girl of my own age looking unmistakably like her father.

		Gimondi had risen from the flames of Merckx's domination to grab the rainbow jersey and prove once and for all that he was one of the greats.
		Gimondi was part of the tactical transition in racing, never overreacting, remaining calm and intelligently assessing the situation before acting.
		Today, Felice Gimondi remains, as Noel Henderson wrote in his book Cycling Classics, 1970-72, "the perfect cyclist for any young hopeful to model himself upon: generous, loyal, hardworking and never querulous." Gimondi is one of the great champions, who rose to meet the toughest challenges and take professional cycling to new heights of class.

	Felice Gimondi - Sport anni 70
		Gimondi riusciva molto spesso a battere tutti questi secondi, ma c'era comunque sempre Merckx davanti.
		Gimondi non ha la brutale potenza di Merckx, è lui il freddo che preferisce rimanere nel gruppone a pianificare la mossa successiva, mentre è il belga - più emotivo e irruente - che si agita e preme per la prima fuga possibile.
		Gimondi si ritira da vincitore nel 1978, ancora sano, integro e competitivo all'età di 37 anni, due anni dopo aver vinto il suo terzo Giro d'Italia.

		Gimondi was the only one with the strength to hold his wheel, following Aimar to the Parc des Princes and then whipping around him with a powerful thrust and sprint to build an incredible 42 second lead and win the Tour de lâAvenir in front of 40,000 frantic racing fans.
		Gimondi had come from nowhere, with an amateur career that was little more remarkable than that of any of the thousands of Italians that raced alongside him, and won what was, next to the Amateur World Championships, the pinnacle of amateur racing.
		Gimondi was Anquetilâs successor to the cycling throne, and Coppiâs heir as campionissimo.

	RTÉ.ie Sport - Cycling: Pantani considering switch
		Controversial cyclist Marco Pantani may be on the verge of turning his back on road racing, with reports that he is considering a move to mountain bike competition.
		According to his Mercantone Uno team manager Felice Gimondi, the 1998 Tour de France winner is seriously considering gearing next season towards aiming for the 2002 world mountainbike championships.
		Gimondi, who himself won the Tour in 1965, suggests that safety is the underlying reason for Pantani's current change of heart, with the recent death of Spaniard Ricardo Ochoa underlining the vulnerability of road cyclists.
