Just watching a programme about Frank he was good had forgotten a lot of his rides.

Get a feeling he will do a ride in one of the classics/semi classics this coming spring.

New team,Belgian based mainly Belgian riders & staff is flying in training & looking very fit.

VDB watch out for him this spring Wink

I'd love to see him make a lasting comeback but I feel sure its all going to end in dissapointment again.

I'd love to see it happen, but I don't think it will. Sad

Always had a soft spot for him , when I first started taking an interest in road ridding in 99 he was storming that spring looked so cool droping boogard in liege.... but he has had so many 2nd chances I dont really know what he will do

Sadly, I can't see a successful return for the Pete Docherty of pro cycling.

Such a waste of talent. Can't see him getting it together again at his age.

I always remember seeing him at the finish of the Tour of Majorca back in 2001/2002. He was just sitting there alone in the back of the team car staring at my bike. No wonder he suffered from depression later.

Good luck to him but he is too fragile not in body but mind .

But we love riders like Frank because they show that they are not robots .

Classic case of someone with wonderful physical gifts, but unable to cope with the pressure mentally. I actually feel quite sad for him, if he does make something of this season then I'll be pleased, but I think it will probably end sooner rather than later just like other "comebacks".
