  1. ....2003, 1996 ?
    Nice to see cycling back with a "human" face today, now that the
    "ET's" are gone. Too bad this should happen to a nice guy like Floyd
    and not to the UberAssHole knows as LA.

  2. Yeah, thats the way I felt about it too...

    My favourites are 1983-86, 1989, 1996-1998.

    1983 = Fignon's first, something noone had predicted
    1984 = Fignons second, in wich he humiliated Hinault and Lemond
    1985 = Hinault's last
    1986 = Lemond vs. Hinault
    1989 = 8 seconds!
    1996 = The young guy who crushes his leader Riis in the mountains.
    1997 = Dramatic loss of boy wonder against a rider I never really
    liked: Pantani.
    1998 = Lance's first was as surprising as can be. Too bad for Zulle
    though.

    Dumbass,

    You're a premature e-speculator. LA's first win was 1999.

    91-95 = Indurain
    96 = Riis
    97 = Ullrich
    98 = Pantani
    99 on = Armstrong

    Ummm ... No ... Leader Riis crushes Indurain (et al) in the mountains.

    Ummm ... No ... Boy Wonder crushes everyone in the time trials and
    mountains.

    Ummm ... No ... Pantani wins the drug-addled Festina scandal-rocked Tour,
    crushing Boy Wonder in the rain on the Galibier.

    Naturally. Pascal Simon had a large lead until he broke his collarbone.
    This opened the door for Fignon.

    Lemond ? No And Hinault had a bad tour.
