Indeed Hincape has his own chapter in Tour glory. The modern Tour is a team event - I can't think of any rider who has one his own Tour...maybe Indurain's '91 or '92 but my memory's a bit hazy that far back
Cadel had to work hard for the win. He was clearly a happy rider this year & he's fast when he's happy!
