Q: Who was the first North American to lead the Tour de France?

a) Andy Hampsten
b) Alex Stieda
c) Greg Lemond
d) Bob Roll
e) Alexi Grewal
f) Lance Armstrong
g) Steve Bauer

The Vuelta Espana began today with a record four Canadian riders taking part - likely a record Canadian participation for any Grand Tour. Velonews likes to give props to Canadian racers whenever possible, but even CyclingNews commented on it. Canadian cyclists have enjoyed some success in Grand Tours with both Alex Stieda and Steve Bauer having held the yellow jersey at the Tour de France. The answer is Alex Stieda in 1986 - the year Greg Lemond ended up winning. If you answered f) Lance Armstrong we're going to come and take your bike away from you.
