Monty on Cycling

If you have seen the Facebook page, I have been updating on the Tour de France. My favorite sprinter is Mark Cavendish, he is also my favorite cyclist. He has 3 '10 Tour de France stage wins.



His leadout man, Mark Renshaw got DQ'd for Rough Riding/Unsportsmanlike Conduct. Tyler Farrar's lead-out man, Julian Dean came down on him. Renshaw used his head to knock Dean away. After launching Cavendish, Renshaw came down on Farrar. Tyler had to put his hand on the back of Renshaw to keep him away.


If you are going to DQ Renshaw, you must also DQ Dean. If it is about safety you MUST toss both or neither of them.

Farrar abandoned in Stage 12, so in my mind justice was done.
