"At last this race is going to be open again," said Leblanc. "It was tiresome to see the same scenario repeat itself every summer."

Man, how RUDE is this? Yeah, anyone who ever suggested IGNORING Miguel Indurain, Eddy Merckx or Bernard Hinault would be CRUCIFIED. What's the difference between those three champions and Lance Armstrong? Those three champions were European. Way to go with the world-view, Leblanc.

I know you didn't mean Daddio, but the similarity of situations is what I was looking at.

At first, I thought this was a RIDER, which if irritating, would still be slightly admissable as competitive, or even understandable.
