Stage 21 is over now, and that means the 96th Tour de France is also over. This final stage was a 100 mile ride into Paris and then a few laps of the Champs Elysees. The leg was won in a sprint by Columbia's Mark Cavendish, but it was not enough to give him the green jersey. It was his sixth win of this year's Tour, and that puts him among the great sprinters. I wouldn't bet against hime taking green in next year's Tour. Here are the winners for this year:
OVERALL WINNERS
1st Place..........Alberto Contador (Astana)
2nd Place..........Andy Schleck (Saxo Bank)
3rd Place..........Lance Armstrong (Astana)
GREEN JERSEY (BEST SPRINTER)
