Default Skier Maier to lead out Tour de France

All this talk about climbers and sprinters in the prologue reminded me of a
few years ago where Marcel Wust rode easy in the prologue, then blasted up
the one minor hill to win the KOM jersey for the first week. Think he even
won a bunch sprint while wearing polka dots.

It was pretty ridiculous having a pure sprinter in the KOM jersey like
that, though not as ridiculous as dumbass continuing to argue in this
thread.

NS


In doing so, he foiled Frankie Andreu, who had the same plan to grab the
KOM jersey.

He did win a sprint in the Polka Dot (man bites dog), JP Von Poppell had
done it prior to him...
