There was testosterone, but from an interview Hinault gave where he was talking about testosterone it's clear he doesn't know anything about it (he talked a lot about it but it was clear he had no idea what the hell he was talking about)

At the Dauphiné he gained a lot of time at the first check, a little more at the second and pretty much nothing at the third

Just heard on the TV:
1989 Lemond had number 141 when he won the Tour vs Fignon with 8 seconds
2011 Evans has number 141... |

I admit my knowledge is limited on the matter. More research will follow, whenever I feel like it ;-)
@OT: Tony Martin has won this. |

Are you saying Hinault did a TT in Tour de France at average speed 60km/h?
If so, I want to see the results from that TT |
