Don't think I ever saw that mentioned anywhere, but I"ve noticed that no multiple TdF winner won
after celebrating his 31st birthday. Merckx - Last victory 1974 - Last tour 1977>31 Hinault - Last
Victory 1985 - Last tour 1986>31 Lemond - Last Victory 1990 - Last tour 1993>31 etc... He's broken
all the other TdF rule, I hope he doesn't break that one, we'll leave that to Ullrch in 2005 for his
4th win ;-)
