I ran across http://www.torelli.com/raceinfo/tdf/tdfindex.shtml and saw that most TDF winners are
French. Subtracting streaks of French wins ( the TDF is primarily a French race ), that leaves only
Indurain and Armstrong until back in the early 70's with Merckx's 4 wins in the 'modern' times.
Beginning in 1986, LeMond and Armstrong combined for 7 TDF wins in the past 17 years. Those
numbers are very spectacular! One can only wonder what would have happened if LeMond had not
been shot.
