Quite a while ago I read Tom D's article entitled "Absolute Pansy" (http://bikesportmichigan.com/...orials/0000038.shtml) - in summary it strongly expresses his feelings about Petacchi after winning 3 stages of the tour and then quitting for no apparent reason at the beginning of the mountain stages - I absolutely agree with Toms assessment (although I would probably not have worded it so strongly) and it has been playing on my mind for some time - and here is my answer - although it would require a major shift in thought about Le Tour I would love to see stage winners being recognised at the end of the Tour AFTER THEY HAD COMPLETED THE TOUR. If you do not complete the Tour you do not get the stage win....ok now you can all go ahead and shoot me down!!
