Hi Guy,

i had a chance to talk to Erik Zabel at the "Carbon Sports (makers of the fine, but OT "Lightweight" Wheels) Open Day" shortly. Of course i asked him about his bikes :) He said he had just a few (7, iirc), that he rode during his pro career. So i assume, no on topic bicycles. I was quite surprised, because i also thought i had read somwhere that he is said to have many, also older, bicycles... What exactly did Cycle Sport say?

Martin Appel Munich, BY, who at least got an autograph from arguably the most successful -and nicest- german pros of all time :)
