[GuyBoden]

Lot a piss easy time trial wins in Eddy's 34

And 11 Grand Tour, 28 Classics, 3 World Champs and 1 hour Record easy wins.

Third most famous, you forgot Tintin.

Mikel Landa: If Sunday doesn't go well for me,I'll focus on winning stages" 😁

So, he’ll be stage hunting then.

Good luck with that too!

Plastic Bertrand trumps them all

And my man-crush on Cav will never end

Last 4k @12%

More GC shenanigans? A Pinot spectacular (in which he finishes second)?

And closed road I think as too narrow for fans barriers etc. Was thinking of going to watch it, but that put me off, and the finish is actually quite a long way from base here.

Leave Eddy alone. He's the second most famous Belgian, I'll have you know. (After Hercule Poirot)

What about, Jean-Claude Camille François Van Varenberg.

The number of vehicles within the race convoy will be limited as well. And the media centre will be built down in the valley so it may be a while before we hear from the winner. If it was me climbing up the Puy de Dome, I'd be tempted to cycle into the media centre and say that I've already finished........

Jean Claud Butler???

Aww man, just watched the ITV4 highlights show and I'm still surprised how upset I am about Cav (getting soft in my old age!). I think Marcel Kittel summed in up perfectly " We all began to believe in the fairy-tale but now it's over"

 

[matticus]

He had it all - still does!

He could sense a gap, was a true sprinting 'genius' at finding space and while sure, he had great lead-out men, Cav knew how to win regardless.

I do believe he had a win waiting for him in this Tour.

When he saw his chance yesterday - and before the gear issues - despite already knowing the result I thought he was going to win; he caught them all napping, and looked nailed on!

But that's sport...

The interviews were brilliant, so many heart-felt tributes. And Prudhomme's was the best, genuinely moving

I've just seen that and...

Alexander Vinokourov in L'Equipe:

"We want to give Mark Cavendish the possibility to ride for one more year, but it's up to him. We'd love to see him ride in 2024, start his 15th Tour de France and win his 35th stage."
