50. i had to google for some spellings (anquetil) and some riders i knew but forgot their names (fignon, pereiro). not too bad though.

must come from having the tdf centenary book as my bedtime reading…

44. Just read 'the tour' so should have done better. Spelt Van Impe wrong, gutted.

 

[PaulB]

I spelt Merckx wrong. Several times!

51 but spelling was an issue in that I counted the ones I knew but couldn't spell.

36 - (the shame ) - I was completely rubbish prior to Merckx !

 

[alecstilleyedye]

51 but spelling was an issue in that I counted the ones I knew but couldn't spell.

that would give me 55 (i had to google for anqutil as he was worth 5 points).

 

[Noodley]

Didn't get 56, 60, 66 or 73 due to not knowing

...nor 68 and 80 due to bad spelling on my part.

 

[Will1985]

50 here too - also had to google Anquetil's spelling.

 

[Chuffy]

56 - had to remind myself of a couple (that bloke in the book! with the braces! won three times! oh yeah, Bobet).

52 there were a few problems with spelling - zoetemelk took a lot of time to get right (just for 1 point too!). Forgot some pretty obvious ones too - Bartali being a particular notable.
