Thomas “TV Tommy” Voeckler.

Thanks for sayin it, vote British people!!

God the commentary is soooooo baaaaad. Watching Michael Rasmussen decent that horrible descend and they cannot tell that he's actually good at it. He's no Savoldelli or Sagan but he's riding to the edge and he never skids or locks up. His lines are just not the ones those morons (Who never rode bikes themselves) would take. Same guys that raved on about how Nibali was Soooooooo good down hill because he took such risks and was oh so fast.... Guess what? When his youthfull spirit left him he turned into on of the worst descenders I've ever seen cause he wasn't that good technically when it came down to it and had lost all his courage and got scared. But oh no he was still so fast and good. Just because you look in difficulty doesn't mean you are. Rasmussen's style wasn't pretty but if he was that bad, how come he never crashed other then that famous TT in 2004 ofc. Rasmussen rode Contador out of the wheel going downhill a year later several times and Alberto was a pretty good descender. Doesn't get worse then British commentary as far as actually having knowledge about the actual race that's happening in front of you.

The great days of the Tour 👏🇺🇸

David Miller never stopped complaining.

Incredible how unsuitable most of the bikes were for pros back in the day . Compare how they look today to how uncomfortable and awkward most of these boys look . Most of them are about 10kg heavier than their modern day athletes.

Great upload. But my god British commentary has always been the absolute worst. Who in their right mind believed that Fabian Cancellara could keep yellow on the stage to Andorra? It was impossible and his own team said he'd try but it wouldn't be possible.

The tour announces the next years route and then the parties responsible for the roads on that route take a sudden interest and lay down new ashalt, this road seen here is in pristine condition.

❤🎉🎉

53:56 There's seve

54:33 there it is the 21 hairpin corners that is....

31:02 TDF stage winner does post race... for dummies

man was war damals mglich. nen Ulle gewinnt die Tour und im TV gabs noch Titten ohne Pixel

“The Colombian has a high natural testosterone level. He was found not guilty because his high testosterone is natural!” 😂😂😂😂 these commentators were part of the problem with ludicrous sycophancy!

I lost weight during cancer as well, but it sure didn't make me any faster....guess I didn't take the right meds.

Team ONCE was awesome in the TTT.

Titti Favorola? wtf?

Lemond vs the dopers

And what about cappuccino !

What I wanna know is how did hit Hennie Kuiper his head on an overhanging rock? Were they racing through a cave??? lol

Pantani’s stage 21 TT was pretty LOL

It's a terrible situation to watch riders like Greg lemond and Figon take a backseat to drugheads like Miguel indurian who won every tour de France juiced up on E. P. O. !

" The Italians don't always ride well in the Tour de France, I don't know what it is, but maybe we don't serve enough spaghetti when they get to France" - Phil Liggett Also @ 1:19:52 The KOM cow is grazing while la vache maillot jaune is studying the race.

Is there a Part 10 floating around the aethyr anywhere?

Golden Era in cycling. This is the first TdF I remember as a kid.

Why were Liggget and Sherwen so endears to Armstrong

Liggett and Sherwen had such a massive hard-on for Armstrong

Liggett and Sherwen were such fan boys of Armstrong

opportunistic and shameful is the only way to describe hincape's win. cheering for him is like cheering for the parasite to kill the host. zero effort in the entire breakaway and then speeding up to steal the win from the man who put in the most effort. once it was clear armstrong is not chasing or will be needing his help, he should have joined in the effort with the other riders in the breakaway, that is the code. no respect.

Wow, Phil and Paul before they were Phil and Paul.

Yes, Lance....if only you had stuck with that pre-race retirement announcement ...the 7 would still have your name on it.

That tiny acceleration by Kloden at the front with 1km to go f....d Levi as he was already on the red.

Look at the gears we used to push, compared to the mt.bike grear 's the so called professionals ride now. Back in my day if showed up to the start line with anything less than 54×11, 42×23. You would get laughed at all the way back to your hotel room...

1991 Tour D'epo

You don’t know what is happening in the mountains.

Greatest tour ever!

Thanks for posting these races 🙏

Listening to Phil & Paul is like therapy, makes me feel so at peace 🙏
