"Which other sports stars share Impey's December 6 birthday?

Keke Rosberg [F1 driver], Andrew Flintoff [cricketer] and, er, controversial cyclist Alberto Contador"

I remember a Peugeot range of bikes that was named after him. Not sure if he was SA born. He was a climber of note and was a Polka Dot rider on a occasion. He was with Festina until the dopy scandal.

True that. He was born in Morocco and led the Tour in 2 different editions. Commentators got it wrong.

VIrenque, was the child of French nationals in Morocco, first generation, They moved back to France when he was nine. He was as much an African as what a person who sleeps in a garage is a car.

Hey gents/ladies,

We all wear yellow?

 

Or I could put on my borat suit and run next to the peleton waving my SA flag sometime in the next few weeks?

 

On second thoughts, I think gummibear is closer to the TDF than I am.....
