Rese�a del editor:

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Rudy Pevenage (Moerbeke, June 15, 1954) is a former Belgian cyclist, and later in his career team coach of cycling teams such as Histor, La William, Team Bianchi and T-Mobile Team. Pevenage was a professional cyclist from 1976 until 1988. His largest success was in the Tour de France: he won one stage and was crowned best sprinter. In 1979 he reached second place in the Tour de Suisse. He also spent nine days in the Yellow Jersey. His nickname was de rosse van Moerbeke. After his cycling career, Pevenage became a team manager. Pevanage was team manager of Deutsche Telekom when Jan Ullrich started his career. In 2002, when Ullrich was forced to leave the team, Pevenage followed Ullrich to his new team Bianchi. After a good 2003 Tour de France, Ullrich returned to Telekom, without Pevenage. In 2006, Pevenage returned to Telekom (then renamed T-Mobile). When Ullrich was suspected of using illegal doping in Operación Puerto and was fired by T-Mobile Team, Pevenage also had to leave. He was rumoured to have worked as a connection between Ullrich and the Spanish Eufemiano Fuentes.
