This year's TdF has some teams in which the Team Director and at least one of the riders were opponents in previous tours. Can you name any of the pairs, which teams they were on and the year? (I know, this one is a toughy...)

I would guess that Johan Bruyneel competed against Bjarne Riis.  Not sure what teams they were on.

The recent copy of BICYCLING magazine has an article about Johan in which it states that Jahan and Lance competed against each other in the 1995 Tour Day France. Johan was on team ONCE and Lance was on team MOTOROLA.

I'd say Riis and Bruyneel for the 2 team directors. Riders riding when they competed? Maybe (for Bruyneel) Armstrong, (and for Riis) Ullrich, Georg Totschnig, Danielle Nardelo

Current Discovery Channel Team - Bruyneel (Once) and Armstrong (Motorola) in 1993 was one of the ones I was thinking of and Team CSC - Riis (Telekom) and Julich (Cofidis) in 1997 was the other ones I was thinking of. I'm sure we could find more too. Good job guys! Study up on your polka-dots for tomorrow's trivia question.
