Wish I knew where a larger one of this was, but I've always really liked it.

I can't find it now but there was a very good photo from this year's stage of the Tour de France into Toulouse, with Columbia rider Cavendish sprinting to the line ahead of the others through heavy rain. Maybe someone can find this, I think it is a good photo.

I can't believe this has not been posted!!! IMHO by far one of the best cycling photos ever.

Pain, Trimuph, Newcomer, Senior, Classic Soap Opera type battle that will never be forgotten. Oh, and technical advances being shown (clipless pedals)

So many of the earlier shots are good because they have no glasses and no helmets. You can look right into the riders eyes and see their faces properly.

Its made by Cor Vos at the 2004 or 2005 Eneco Tour; maybe this eases your search.
