Chris Hoy gets sports personality of the year

I'm slightly off topic on this one, and I'm all for congratulating chris hoy on becoming sports personality of the year, but is it just me or does everyone seem to forget that stephen roche won the tour de france, the vuelta, the giro and was world road race champion all in one year '87? i think. I know he didn't win sports personality of the year at the time, but he should have done..
just my tuppence,
excuse me I'll get me coat..

Roche never won the Vuelta. No-one, not even Eddy Merckx, has won the Vuelta, the Giro and the Tour in the same year. Only Merckx and Roche have won the Giro, the Tour and the Worlds in one season.
