Default Vaughters' palmares

Cyclingnews.com wrote an article about the retirement of J Vaughters and mentioned a stage win
in the Tour. What are they talking about? As far as I know there were no stage wins and no finishes at the
Tour for him.

I wonder what they were thinking of?

He was part of the team that won a TTT stage.

The stage win was on Ventoux, but not in the Tour. I think it was the Dauphine.

2001 or 2002 TTT (with Credit Agricole).

I think he twice won the Ventoux in the Dauphine ... In 1999 and 2000 if I recall correctly. The
Tour stage win was a TTT with Credit Agricole.

OK, thanks. I wonder why the Tour archives don't count TTT wins as stage wins for the individual?

TTT should not count on individual palmares.

As long as it is listed as a TTT this should count as a stage win on his record. Why not ? He was on
the winning team for a stage victory in a team event.

Should the backup QB, who played one down, be denied a SuperBowl ring just because he did not
contribute to a score ?

Obviously an ITT win is more important but I do agree that some recognition is due. The problem is
that not everyone agrees. As I said, the Tour archives do not credit him with the stage. I also
think it would have been very interesting for Lance if he failed to win that single mountain stage
this year. Everyone expects the GC winner to win a stage as well and he would have been able to
claim the TTT, but many would not accept that.

That would be as unfair as the TTT itself is to the GC :-)

You're jealous of his sideburns. Don't deny it. You know you are.
