Eki finally retired (again, for good this time) so I am trying to
figure out who the eldest riders are now. Brochard has to be close to
40 (he was in the World's Rainbow Jersey when he and his Festina team
were expelled from the 1998 Tour) I saw that Brochard was in a break
in Switzerland and it looks like he is still keeping up.
Who else are older than 35 or so? Eki was the last guy that retired
while my age or older...so now I feel...a little older?
On a related now, what are some of the best web or 'net resources for
cycling stats of all types. I would have expected the UCI site to have
more info and while cyclingnews.com has maintained all of the stories
since they started to publish, which is great..but I was hoping that
there were some English sites that backfilled in some of the coverage
from the pre-public Internet era. The best site I know of is French
only.

There's a bunch of those 1972ers I now have to track: when the last of
them retires I'll be older than every member of the pro peloton.

I'm tracking everyone younger than my son. I have maybe six-seven
years before I feel really old.
