Best not to tell bazza and bagman but an Aussie(Cadel Evans) won the
Tour de France this year, first time ever an Aussie has won.

Fully deserved, he beat the 2 Luxembourg brothers that tried to
break him, they finished 2nd and 3rd.

He(Evans) rode a superb race and although I wanted the former 3 times winner Contador to win, Evans was better.

A Brit( Mark Cavendish) managed to win the Green Jersey(King of the Sprints)first time ever a Brit has won that title and a record 3 times win on the final stage in Paris.

Some tears on the podium at the finish.
