    Eddy Merckx, Hinault & Indurain are NOT on any list I can find of those
    who've won more than 5 TDFrances.

    That's because they could be bothered racing the rest of the year.

    Ron

    and yet he CANNOT be found on any list which has racers who've won the
    TDF more than 5 times.

    So? Learn a little about the sport. Lance has the best record in the TdF.
    Merckx has the best record in the sport.

    Merckx has the best record in the sport.

    And of the top cycling races which one is considered the most prestigious?

    The world championship road race. It even has a jersey that the winner can
    wear all year in all cycling races. You don't get thát at the Tour.

    Pascal Richard wanted there to be a special Olympic Champion jersey that
    he could wear for four years. "No dice", said the powers that be.

  13. Armstrong isn't on this list either:

    Indurain, Museeuw, Ludwig, Chiappucci, Riis, Fondriest

    You'd think that would be important, but it doesn't matter.

    And not a single one of them was worth 10 million.

  15. Hey last year LA picked up 10 million for winning the TDF and if he won
    any thing else he might have gotten a . . . jersey?
