MARSEILLE,[http://www.jerseys-ns.net/Nike-Steelers-59-Ham-1933s-Throwback-yellow-Elite-Jerseys-16134/ Nike Steelers 59 Ham 1933s Throwback yellow Elite Jerseys], France (AP) Mark Cavendish will never be the greatest Tour de France rider, because he will never win the race five times like Eddy Merckx of Belgium and Frenchman Bernard Hinault. Still, the sprinter with thighs like thick hams could outdo both those legends by winning more stages at cycling s premier race.
By Cavendish s warp-speed standards, his 24th stage win on Wednesday was a ride in the park. The teammates who led Cavendish to the finish, sucking him along in their wheels, building up his speed, were toiling like clockwork. Stamping on his pedals, head down, thighs pumping like pistons, Cavendish then whooshed off alone for the last 150 meters (yards), leaving everyone else in his wake.
Cavendish was carrying so much momentum and this win in Marseille, France s second-largest city, was so comfortable that he was able to sit up in the saddle and make a hand motion like cracking a whip as he crossed the line.
One more stage win will tie Cavendish with Andre Leducq, the Frenchman who got 25 stage wins in the 1920s and 1930s, putting him third on the all-time list. Beyond Leducq is Hinault, who notched up 28 wins in the 1970s and 80s. Merckx s monument is 34, won from 1969 to 1975. Jacques Anquetil and Miguel Indurain also won five Tours, but didn t win as many stages as Hinault and Merckx. Anquetil won 16; Indurain got 12. All seven of Lance Armstrong s Tour wins were stripped for doping. This 100th Tour is the first since Armstrong s fall last year.
Cavendish says he isn t fixated on Hinault or Merckx s numbers. He notes that for many riders, winning just one stage let alone the 11 he needs to surpass Merckx is a career-defining feat.
You have to show the Tour de France the respect it deserves, he said.
But then Cavendish isn t any other rider. Before this edition, he collected on average nearly five wins at every Tour since 2008. In 2009, he got six. He won the last four sprint finishes on the Champs-Elysees in Paris, where he is unbeaten since 2009. While Merckx s record is still a way off, Hinault and most certainly Leducq look within Cavendish s grasp.
Obviously I aim to win multiple stages each year. But to set any goals, any number it does one of two things: It sets you up to fail for something or it puts like a mark on what you want to achieve and it can kind of stop you trying to move forward, he said.
Were Cavendish to overtake Hinault,[http://www.s-game.cn/home.php?mod=space&uid=256372 ], it wouldn t mean he is a better overall rider than the famously bad-tempered Badger, who was strong on every terrain. But in a sprint, Cavendish has no equal, at least in this generation.
Although Cavendish downplays the chase for stage-win milestones, he is certainly very aware of them. The Tour director, Christian Prudhomme, says that more than a year ago, at the Tour of Oman, he quietly tested Cavendish s knowledge of Tour de France history and was delighted when he rattled off the names of Andre Darrigade, who won 22 stages in the 1950s and 60s, as well as Leducq, Hinault, Merckx and their respective totals.
He is aware of what does it take to become No. 1 on the list of most winning riders ever, confirmed Rolf Aldag, one of the managers of Cavendish s Omega Pharma-Quick Step team.
He has a chance to make history, he said. It s a goal, it s a target.
Cavendish would be the first to note that, unlike Merckx, he doesn t win alone. His teammates worked tirelessly to maneuver him into place in Marseille. They helped reel in breakaway riders who scooted off ahead and then delivered him like express mail to within sight of the line.
Omega s Italian rider,[http://www.jerseys-ns.net/Cowboys-9-Tony-Romo-Blue-Thanksgiving-Jerseys-5204/ Cowboys 9 Tony Romo Blue Thanksgiving Jerseys], Matteo Trentin, surged to the front and pedaled as hard as he could up to and around the final left-hand bend, pulling Gert Steegmans and Cavendish behind him.
Exhausted, Trentin then made way for Steegmans, who led Cavendish at top speed to the signboard marking 150 meters to go. From there, the man known as the Manx Missile, because he comes from the Isle of Man, did the rest.
Perfect, man, perfect, Trentin said.
The basic plan never changes, Aldag said. The basic plan is always we believe he s the fastest sprinter and we do everything that needs to be done to try to make him win.
I didn t do anything, Cavendish said. Gert went with such speed that I could accelerate off his wheel and just carried on the speed he delivered me at.
Stage 6 on Thursday 176.5 kilometers (110 miles) from Aix-en-Provence to Montpellier should also suit Cavendish, because it is flat. With his short, muscular frame,[http://www.targultraditiilor.ro/forum/index.php?topic=366507.msg388429#msg388429 Enforcement limitations make daily camping fee impractical Hawaii News, Honolulu], he doesn t like steep climbs.
Simon Gerrans of Australia will again wear the yellow jersey,[http://www.comeandbuy.com.cn/forum/showtopic-1002685.aspx Poll- What do you think of the Huskies’ new gold chrom], after keeping the race lead on Wednesday s bumpy 228.5-kilometer (142-mile) trek from the beach resort of Cagnes-sur-Mer.</body></html>

5 things to know about Tour de France 1

7/4/2013 7:05:00 PM5 things to know about Tour de France

MONTPELLIER, France (AP) Here are five things to know as the Tour de France enters its seventh stage on Friday:

___

1. LOTTO'S LOTTERY: Thursday provided mixed fortunes and emotions for the Lotto-Belisol squad. The morning mood was despondent after team leader Jurgen Van den Broeck, fourth overall last year,Youth Nike Panthers 28 Stewart Black Portrait Fashion Game Jersey, pulled out because of a crash injury to his knee a day earlier. Tough luck for the Belgian: He had also dropped out in 2011 after a brutal downhill spill that left him with broken ribs and a fractured shoulder. But after a bus pep talk by team manager Marc Sargeant and a skillful ride, Lotto shared hugs of joy at the Stage 6 finish after burly German rider Andre Greipel bulldozed his way to a sprint victory at the end of a flat 110-mile ride from Aix-en-Provence to Montpellier. Mused Greipel: "Sometimes happiness and sadness can be so close together."

___

2. MORE MISERY: Flat stages often elicit tense, high-speed racing as riders jostle for position in the pack. Thursday's hot, windy conditions didn't help and a lack of luck bore down on the Astana team. Its Slovenian team leader Janez Brajkovic, who won the Criterium du Dauphine in 2010,[1], dropped out after injuring his chin,Monday morning kickoff — Supplemental Draft this week, and Sherman game wr, breaking a bone in his left hand and opening a deep gash in his knee after crashing into a traffic island during the stage. The spill left him dazed and seated on the road asphalt before he got up to finish but the damage was done. His teammate Fredrik Kessiakoff of Sweden also abandoned the race; he couldn't keep up amid pain from injuries to his elbows, right forearm, chest and left knee in a crash a day earlier. The team from Kazakhstan is down to six of its original nine riders: Andrey Kashechkin dropped out earlier in the race.

___

3. HISTORICAL REVISIONISM: With its revisions, and names and feats crossed out, the Tour's official history guide is starting to look like a kid's homework book: a complete mess. The reason? Doping. Organizers have gone through the tome with a pen and ruler. Lance Armstrong's name and all seven of his wins from 1999-2005 have lines through them. So do 20 of his stage wins. Lines have also been drawn through the names of George Hincapie, Levi Leipheimer and David Zabriskie, who testified to the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency that they were involved in doping while riding with Armstrong. Authors of the "historical guide" had already been forced to rewrite history even before Armstrong was exposed last year as a serial doper. There's an asterisk next to the name of Bjarne Riis. More than a decade after Riis won the 1996 Tour past the statute of limitations for penalties the Dane admitted to doping. Tour historians' erasers may soon be busy again: A French Senate panel later this month is expected to name other riders who doped in the 1998 Tour.

___

4. PEANUTS FOR PRIZE MONEY? The Tour can pay out more in glory than in bank notes. Take the Orica GreenEdge team. The payout they will get for all nine riders and support staffers for winning Tuesday's team time trial is $12,Mavericks 31 Terry Light Blue 2011 Finals Jerseys,900. Individual stage victories bring just over $10,000 to the winner, $5,000 to the second-place rider, etc. And riders do also cash in on individual sprints and mountain climbs. The biggest prize of all goes to the Tour winner. The man who takes home the leader's yellow jersey gets $581,000 along with it. Daryl Impey of South Africa, who seized the yellow jersey on Thursday, said he didn't even know how much he was owed for the Orica GreenEdge time-trial victory. "Money? I don't know how much it was, but we don't do it for the money,What if UH had held firm with SMU, as Celtics did- Hawaii Ne, we do it for the pride, you know?"

___

5. MOUNTAIN HORIZONS: On Friday, the Tour continues its westward swing, negotiating four moderate climbs that will serve as an appetizer for far more severe ascents in the Pyrenees, beginning Saturday. The riders start Friday where they ended Thursday, in Montpellier, and ride 127.7 miles to Albi.</body></html>

MARSEILLE,Nike Steelers 59 Ham 1933s Throwback yellow Elite Jerseys, France (AP) Mark Cavendish will never be the greatest Tour de France rider, because he will never win the race five times like Eddy Merckx of Belgium and Frenchman Bernard Hinault. Still, the sprinter with thighs like thick hams could outdo both those legends by winning more stages at cycling s premier race.
