Tour de France 2001 The Star Riders
As the teams were presented to the public
and TV camera's the Addiscombe Cam managed to pick out a few of the big
hitters. Its really difficult spotting riders when they are just there in
front of you. They all start to look the same after a while and we ended
up with loads of shots of fellas we couldn't identify. Still, we managed
to get these big guys for you...

French
champion Didier Rous. I know you wouldn't normally put him in with the
star riders but he was a favorite of the crowd.
Erik 'Triple' Dekker.

Aussie
Stuart O'Grady.
Columbian Santiago Botero.

World
Champion Romans Vainsteins.

Mapei
leader (and Agreeable Eileen's favorite) Stefano Garzelli.

Spain's
Joseba Beloki.

The
big man himself. Only not looking so big. Infact looking pretty mean and
ready for the challenge ahead. Jan Ulrich.

The
real favorite of the crowd. France's golden boy Laurent Jaja Jalabert.

Lance
Armstrong was the only rider to have his own minder with him. Is this guy
going to sit in the back of the following team car each day - squashing
the poor mechanic into the remaining quarter of a seat?
