	Sean Kelly (cyclist) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		John James Kelly, better known as Sean Kelly (born May 21, 1956, in the townland of Curraghduff, near Carrick-on-Suir, County Tipperary, Republic of Ireland), is a former professional cyclist and is without doubt one of the greatest of his generation.
		Sean Kelly was one of the most dominant and successful cyclists of the 1980's and is regarded as one of the finest Classics riders of all time.
		Kelly was known to be one of the hard men of professional cycling and was nicknamed "The Cannibal" because of his insatiable appetite for victory, achieving an incredible 33 victories in one season (1984).

		Kelly's races are discussed in groups: first his Classic wins (one-day races), then his efforts in the three-week "Grand Tours" (the Tour de France and the Vuelta a España), his World Championship efforts, and finally all his other races.
		While the film falters a bit in depicting Kelly's development as a rider, it does manage to convey a fair amount of Kelly's riding style and his competitive style in general.
		The Sean Kelly Story offers a detailed look at the career of one of professional bicycle racing's "hard men": Kelly has a truly impressive list of victories to his credit, including 22 Classic wins and a then-record number of green jerseys for "most consistent finisher" in the Tour de France.

		A professional cyclist for 17 years, Sean Kelly won almost every important race in the sport with the exception of the Tour de France, Giro d’Italia and the World Championship Road Race.

	Patrick Kelly on Sean (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		He is one of the few who could come on deck for an early morning workout where everyone was sullen and half asleep and all of a sudden with a few witty remarks change the whole atmosphere to one of laughter and smiles.
		Before Sean went off to help Simon Whitfield and Brent McMahon at the pre Olympic training camp in Penticton this summer, I was able to spend time with him driving to some of the local Wednesday night cycling races.
		Sean not only loves to be part of the triathlon world in Victoria he also has a great group of friends that remind him that life isn't only about training and that sometimes he needs to embrace the lighter side of life.

	The Examiner - Sport From Ireland - 31, December, 1999
		Kelly had spent the summer recovering from that broken collarbone, and he lacked serious race fitness.
		But, in fairness to Kelly, it was never possible for him to prepare solely for the Tour de France, considering his status as a Classic rider.
		But it must be remembered Kelly did leave his mark on the Tour de France, winning five stages in total, and shares the record of four outright wins in the green jersey points classification.

		As the Team treads the fine line between the flights of imagination and practical limitations, disappearing cars and six foot bunny rabbits are eliminated and cyclists in fl pointy hats or yards of pink tulle and spangly wands are given grudging consideration.

		In 1982 Kelly won the 12th stage in the Tour de France as well and four stages en route to overall victory in the Paris-Nice.
		Kelly almost provided them with the result they hungered for but, after chasing down Hennie Kuiper, he had to settle for third place behind Giuseppe Saronni and a rising star in the person of Greg LeMond.
		He was joined by Roche, Rolf Golz, Sorenson and Winterberg but when Kelly looked around Argentin was sitting on his wheel and he was faced with a dilemma: if he took the Italian across, he would win the sprint.

		Being as how cycling is the most beautiful of all sports, being a fascinating mix of pain, physical prowess, ability to suffer, profound (but often subtle/hidden) strategy, bluff, courage, and joy, I always tend to see it as a metaphor for pretty much anything worthwhile in life.
		A cyclist who doesn't research the course, his opponents, even the practices of the crowd, is one who's made his life twice as hard as he needed.
		Cyclists are among the hardest working of all sportsmen, some racing up to ~250 days a year.

		For a cyclist who went on to stand on the podium in the Tour de France and in the Olympics, it's not a huge haul, but it was the beginning of his competitive racing career.
		More importantly, he wasn't mentally where a top-tier cyclist needed to be - he lost confidence.
