He’s not achieved anywhere near what he was capable of but it makes him all the more lovable.
When he got pipped by Rigo in the photo finish at the TdF a few years ago, I nearly cried.
Daniel Friebe's nickname for him, the whimsical flaneur, is absolutely spot on.
It really does suit.
I’ve just looked and the year he got pipped by Rigo was the same Tour he went on to win two stages and the KOM jersey so it didn’t turn out too bad for him that year.
