      You are good Heribert!
    
    
     So how about Vlad Bobrik, very young star of an late 80s Tour Dupont.
     He led the race until the final stages. At the time there was still
     some cold war feelings in the US and major work by I think 7-Eleven
     stopped him from winning. Ohh I'm remembering more now it was'nt the
     Tour Dupont it was then called the Tour Du Trump. Word had it that
     Donald Trump (one of the worlds richect men) did'nt want a Russian
     winning his race so he put the word out to the teams to have this
     young phenomena beaten in the race.
    
     Bobrik was only 18 at the time.
