I GRANDI CAMPIONI DEL CICLISMO : EDDY MERCKX
Edouard Louis Joseph Merckx, detto Eddy (Meensel-Kiezegem - Belgio, 17 giugno 1945), Soprannominato il "Cannibale" per la sua voglia di vincere sempre e di non lasciare nulla agli avversari,è considerato da molti il più forte ciclista di tutti i tempi e il miglior sportivo belga di sempre.
Si aggiudicò cinque Tour de France e cinque Giri d'Italia, più una Vuelta a España nel 1973. Fece suoi inoltre tre Campionati del mondo su strada, sette Milano-Sanremo (record), due Giri delle Fiandre, tre Gand-Wevelgem (record), tre Parigi-Roubaix, due Amstel Gold Race, tre Freccia Vallone (record), cinque Liegi-Bastogne-Liegi (record) e due Giri di Lombardia.[3] Fu inoltre primatista dell'ora, con 49,432 km, per dodici anni, dal 1972 al 1984, mentre su pista vinse diciassette Sei giorni.
È uno dei cinque ciclisti ad aver conquistato i tre grandi Giri, e l'unico ad essere riuscito a realizzare l'accoppiata Giro-Tour per tre volte (1970, 1972 e 1974). Nel 1974, inoltre, riuscì a vincere, nello stesso anno, Giro d'Italia, Tour de France e Campionato mondiale su strada: soltanto l'irlandese Stephen Roche, nel 1987, riuscì ad eguagliarlo. Al Tour detiene il record di tappe vinte in totale (34)e in una sola edizione (8), e il maggior numero di maglie gialle (111);al Giro vinse invece 25 tappe e indosso'la maglia rosa per 77 volte,un record.
Oltre a vincere le gare su strada, Merckx vinceva anche d'inverno quando correva nei velodromi. Sono 98 le sue vittorie su pista, tra queste i titoli di campione europeo e campione nazionale di varie specialità e 17 Sei Giorni (le più importanti, Grenoble, Milano, Monaco, Berlino, Zurigo, Gand).
Non solo i risultati danno a Merckx la definizione di ciclista più grande di tutti i tempi, ma anche le sue straordinarie doti di atleta completo e fortissimo su tutti i terreni. Il belga ha vinto molte corse per distacco, ha battuto allo sprint i migliori velocisti della sua epoca, in montagna ha trovato soltanto avversari occasionali e sulle grandi salite ha costruito le più prestigiose vittorie, è stato anche un ottimo discesista, un formidabile cronoman ed un passista d'eccezione. I giornalisti del tempo scrissero che per Merckx avevano esaurito gli aggettivi superlativi.
La sua condotta di gara improntata sullo spettacolo e sulla generosità : la presenza di Merckx era sinonimo di corsa d'assalto, di corsa in testa (da cui il titolo La course en tete di un film biografico sul campione). Tutto questo comportava che Merckx oltre alle numerose vittorie risultava altrettanto spesso piazzato tra i primissimi nelle gare che non riusciva a vincere. Una garanzia di risultato ed una preoccupazione per gli avversari che erano tutti di grande spessore: Gimondi, De Vlaeminck, Motta, Godefroot, Van Looy, Moser, Maertens, Ocana, Poulidor, Veerbeck, Fuente, Thevenet, Bitossi, Sercu.
Edouard Louis Joseph Merckx, Eddy said (Meensel-Kiezegem - Belgium, June 17, 1945), nicknamed the "Cannibal" for his desire to win them all and leave nothing to the adversaries, is considered by many to be the strongest cyclist times and the best Belgian sports ever. He won five Tour de France and five Giro d'Italy, plus a Vuelta a España in 1973. He also his three world championships on the road, seven Milan-Sanremo (record), two Tours of Flanders, Ghent-Wevelgem three (records), three Paris-Roubaix, two Amstel Gold Race, Fleche Wallonne three (records), five Liege -Bastogne-Liege (record) and two tours of England. [3] It was also the hour record holder, with 49.432 km, for twelve years, from 1972 to 1984, while on the track you won seventeen days. It is one of five cyclists to have won all three Grand Tour, and the only one who failed to achieve the Giro-Tour mated three times (1970, 1972 and 1974). In 1974, moreover, failed to win in the same year, the Tour of Italy, Tour de France and World Championship road: only the Irishman Stephen Roche, in 1987, he was able to match him. At the Tour holds the record for stage wins in total (34) and in one edition (8), and as many yellow shirts (111), but won 25 Giro stages and indosso'la pink jersey for 77 times, a records. In addition to winning road races, Merckx won even in winter when it ran in velodromes. Are 98 of his victories on the track, among them the titles of European champion and national champion in various specialties and 17 Six Days (the most important, Grenoble, Milan, Monaco, Berlin, Zurich, Ghent). Not only do the results give the definition of Merckx greatest cyclist of all time, but also his extraordinary gifts as an athlete complete and very strong on all terrains. The Belgian has won many races for the posting, he beat the best sprinters in the sprint of his time in the mountains found only on big climbs and occasional adversaries has built the most prestigious victories, was also a very good downhill skier, a formidable and a chrono- passista exceptional. The journalists of the time wrote that Merckx had run out of superlatives. The race marked his conduct on the show and generosity: the presence of Merckx was synonymous with racing by storm, ran into the head (hence the title La course en tete a biopic on the sample). All this meant that in addition to numerous victories Merckx was equally often placed among the top races in which he could not win. A guarantee of result and a concern for opponents who were all of great thickness: Gimondi, De Vlaeminck, Motta, Godefroot, Van Looy, Moser, Maertens, Ocana, Poulidor, Veerbeck, Fuente, Thevenet, Bitossi Sercu.
