  1. Lance has 5, Lemond has a virtual 5. Eddy claims in
    Bicycling magazine he could have had 2 more, in '68, '73 two
    years he didn't participate when he was in top form, giving
    him a virtual 7. Anquetil claims he had a virtual
    6. Lance only claims 5. Hinault would have had a virtual 6
    if it wasn't for that selfish Greg.

    Lance needs 8 to be the undisputed King of all times.

    I thought Lance needed two. Oh ... I'm sorry. I thought we
    were talking about something else.

    I think Lance needs 6 then needs to win the Giro five times
    and the Vuelta a few times, a la Merckx.

    Actually, Hinault was rather unlucky not to win 1980, so he
    can claim virtual 7 as well.

    Or LeMond could have won 7 if it wasn't for Hinault's
    selfishness, or was it Greg's stupidity for not knowing when
    badger season was. -tom

    Sure! Heck, I'd like to see him just enter the Giro. This
    "everything for the Tour" is mind boggling.

    Virtual Lance isn't on five yet, he just got some of
    those because der Jan couldn't stay of the Bratwursts and
    party pills.

    Lance gets a virtual 7 right now, because he had at least
    two years of top form removed along with the other bits of
    him that cancer got.

    I have a virtual win at the World Tuesday Night
    Championships Novice Men's race series,

    Coppi has a virtual 5 or 6. But I'm not so sure he could
    have beaten Bartali before 1949. That's not just my personal
    opinion. Goddet has said that during the war years Bartali
    would have been more or less invincible. And according to
    Binda Coppi could never have won the Tour of 1948.
