Explanation

Joseba Beloki (born 1973) is a Spanish, former professional cyclist. He was a climber and started his professional career in 1998 as part of the Basque team Euskadi. Beloki came second in Tour de France 2002 and won Volta a Catalunya in 2001. On the 9th stage of Tour de France 2003, Beloki crashed descending Cote de la Rochette, because warm asphalt made his tyre rip apart from the rim.
