I'll have another go at these game things.
Questions and answers quite simply. (You may have seen this question on twitter, if you have ignore this, I'll reveal who's twitter once this question is answered).
Who finished first and last in the same stage of the Tour de France?

I assume it was someone who got relegated to the back of the peleton for bad sprinting, although I have no idea who that would be as I believe when Cavendish won, there were people off the back. I'll guess Cavendish in the lack of any other ideas.

I think Zabel was once relegated after winning a TdF stage. The same TdF with Tom Steels throwing his bidon away in full sprint. |

It's not a sprint relegation.

I guess he should be someone who won a TdF stage, and then, when the same stage was done another year he was last, isn't it?
Still no clue who he is. |

Nope, exact same day.
I'll reveal all a little later on tonight.
Then someone else can have a go.

Was it Cavendish last year? Although I think there were lots of splits that day.

Noval, 2004 TdF TTT: came over the line in tears, 13m16s after his 8 team-mates, last of 183 participants - and a stage winner.
From twitter - @mrendell follow him, good nuggets of info from him, and he writes some very good books.

Kind of misleading question though as he technically didn't finish first, he was just a stage winner. |
