Giro Stage Wins by Americans
View Full Version : Giro Stage Wins by Americans
Add Freddy to the rather short list. As I recall the only
others are Keifel, Lemond and Hampsten. (I may be wrong
about Lemond but I think he won a timetrial at some point).

None. He was second to Brukink on that stage and went over
the pass in second place as well but the first place climber
was too cold to continue. I believe that Bob Roll finished
7th on that stage as well.

OK, how about this one.
Lots of people know Greg Lemond won the final time trial in
the 1989 Tour over Fignon by 58 seconds. What was his margin
of victory over the second placed rider at the Lac de
Vassivi?re time trial in 1990 where he took the yellow
jersey from Chiapucci?

.00 seconds ... LeMond WAS the 2nd place finisher at the Lac
de Vassivière time trial.

Remember, if you didn't pay close enough attention first

Curious isn't it.
Two times an American took first place in a major stage
race, both times coming in 2nd on the stage to the same man,
Eric Breukink:
Andy Hampsten in the stage over the Gavia Pass Greg LeMond
in the Lac de Vassiviere time trial in the TdF.
