Tour de France: 2019

1969 Giro Quick Facts:

3,807 km raced at an average speed of 35.651 km/hr

130 starters and 81 classified finishers

Eddy Merckx executed a purposeful, careful ride, not taking the lead until stage nine.

From there, keeping the maglia rosa seemed to be easy for Merckx and he was surely cruising to victory when he was positive for a banned stimulant at Savona.

To this day Merckx insists he had taken no dope and had been framed

The lead migrated to Felice Gimondi, who remained leader to the end.

Carol and Bill McGann's book The Story of the Tour de France: 2019: A Year of New Faces is available as an audiobook here.
