[edit] Labor broker

If there's somebody, who knows the exact details about the prosecution and condemnation of this person somewhere in the seventees for tax fraud and/or other usual labor brokers sins, let him/her ad a section about it. (provincial and maybe national papers are available as sources). Natubico (talk) 18:24, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Pro-cyclist???

"...and still has a pro-license, which makes him the world's oldest active pro-cyclist."

Two things:

  • Are there any sources about this?
  • How can someone be pro-cyclist, when he has completely different professional activities? He hasn't got a contract, unless maybe with his himself as a sponsor and maybe once a year takes part in a contest. How much do these pro-licences cost nowadays and are they available in webshops as well? Natubico (talk) 21:58, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Ten records?

"He is mainly known for his ten world records cycling behind heavy engines"

So many different records in one discipline? Which ones? Or should it be "ten times breaking a record"? Natubico (talk) 22:55, 1 January 2008 (UTC)`

[edit] What year?

".....try to break his own World Record later this year."

What year? Not 2007? How did it go? Nothing about this on Google. Somebody else was going to try in okt.. But a 62 years old trying to break his own speedrecord? They're not going to attach that bike to that car (again)? Natubico (talk) 23:19, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
