One last thought on the 2005 Tour...

Did y'all notice that the riders wore helmets throughout all stages this year?

Last year the rule was the riders could ditch them on an uphill finish, but this year (gladly), everyone had a helmet every day, all day.

I'm wondering if there was pressure from cycling advocacies... anybody notice on any other pro rides where the boys generally ditch their helmets?

Until next year...
