Italian Filippo Pozzato showed he is one of the favourites for the elite men's world road race in Geelong next Sunday after winning the Herald Sun World Cycling Classic Ballarat yesterday.
Pozzato infamously announced last month that he would abstain from sex until he won the world title, and of course the first question asked on the post-race podium was about ending his pledge of celibacy since May to win the world race title in Geelong.
