Although the spanish were a bit of a disappointment this year in the Tour de France, I almost totally agree with this statement, maybe I would add France also, just because of the sheer number of cyclists. [/QUOTE]Actually, I think there are more professional cyclists in Italy and Spain as well, judging by the number of Trade Team I and II teams they've got. The French are a good third in all this, but it may just seem that there are so many of them because Jean-Marie Leblanc always decides to invite practically every single French team to the Tour de France.
