While the last stage at the Tour de France is mainly a procession for the rest of the peloton before the sprinter teams and breakaway artists ready themselves for the laps around the Champs-Elysees, most of the memories captured before the hard gallop are pictures of champagne sipped on the bike, the colored jerseys all having a chat, and supposed transfer negotiations between possible future teammates. The inimitable Dave Zabriskie, the current U.S. time trial champion who finished fifth in today's ITT, has altogether different memories from last year's final stage:
Last year on the way to Paris I had to stop in an Indian restaurant for an emergency crap. I hope this doesn't happen again tomorrow.
