Was this the one? TDF 1997 stage 19, Bart Voskamp and Jens Heppner in a 2 man sprint that was basically 200 meters of wrestling on wheels...

Anyone have a photo of "that sprint" from the Tour where a Telecom (?) and
a

Banesto (?) rider are leaning on each other. Can't remember the year, only
that they both got DQ'd.

Are you talking about the time McEwen headbutted/leaned on O'Grady?

Put up a small instructional post about what happens if you don't hold

In addition, I have heard about some racers littering this weekend at
the High Desert Omnium. I will be contacting those racers individually.
