Forgive me if this has already been noted.
I just did a quick check. I haven't been able to figure out what Il-Banesto
was using, but not counting them, every team with a top 10 finisher except
for Phonak was on Shimano. Said another way, I can only verify one rider in
the top 10 on GC at this year's TdF that rode Campy.
No conclusions here ... just an observation. You ride who sponsors you.

Try Campyonly.com they have a complete list of the stage winners & what they use.
The Campyonly.com page should be an embarresment to Campagnolo. If the
stage winner or overall leader was using Campagnolo equipment, they have a
big, colorful photo of the winner and the large Campy logo. If the winner or
leader was using Shimano equipment, the Campy page has only the leader's
name and the word "shimaNO", spelled with a big "NO". There for there is no
photo of Lance Armstrong, at least not that I could find.

Why should Campagnolo pay to promote someone elses [censored]? Let Shimano put up
their own site.

That website is not supported by Campagnolo in any way. It is run by a
loyal Campy user in California who loves and only uses campy parts. If
you go to the offical Campy site you will find no reference to the
CampyOnly site.

Even better. A private individual can do whatever the hell they want.

Let me suggest something - complain to the LA Times and the New York Times
about being biased. Don't complain to a website pushing Campy that they
should also advertise Shimano.
It's a bit sick & twisted isn't it?
Good thing campy has such loyal supporters. Shimano doesn't need any
help with promotion. Thay own the world of bicycles. Love it, Hate it
,or just ignore it.
