På nogle af vejene gennem de franske alper var der blevet kørt Tour de France få uger tidligere, og asfalten var overmalet med rytternes navne. Her er det nogle danske tilskuere der har malet en lille opmuntring til gutterne fra Memorycard Jack & Jones.
	On some of the roads in the French Alps the Tour de France teams had fought their way just a few weeks earlier, and fans had written their favorite's name on the asphalt. Although the number of Danish fans this year was smaller than when Bjarne Riis was among the top favorites, several encouraging cheers were painted on the asphalt for the Danish riders of Team Memorycard Jack & Jones.
