Almanac
Is there an almanac for the TdF similar to a baseball
almanac that gives the names, bio, and palmares for each rider in the Tour? I checked the French TdF web site and didn't see one. Thanks, Mike |

They don't have the rider list in an easily identifyable place, but it is ther if you look hard enough. http://www.letour.fr/2004/us/index.html in the right hand menu, click on " The Race" and then "the pack" click on a team name to get the rider list, and then a rider to view his stats. > Thanks, > > Mike |

I'm hoping to find a book I can buy to carry around, but it sounds like such a thing might not exist. Trading cards would be good too. M. |

I refer to it on a daily basis. -Sonarrat. |

We have so much racing expertise across several different countries it would be so easy to assemble this information when the team lists are announced and do a Web-based publication in a browsable form. (All the information already exists; the added value is putting it all together in one place.) But then, I'm guessing that one reason this publication would be so useful is that someone could then use it to make informed comment about team tactics based on rider form and abilities. And we wouldn't want that round here. |
