You slipped on 2nd place GC.

My recollection was that the German National team told
Ullrich he could do the Olympics or the Tour but not both.
Somewhere in Germany there are people that know Indurain
owes them a debt for his 1996 TT Gold Medal.

Sure did ;)

I actually stupidly mis-captioned the Three Jerseys
Yellow Bjarne Riis (Dan)
Green Erik Zabel (All)
Pois Rouges Richard Virenque (Fra)

and yes, Der Kaiser was Second on GC
