Take a trip back in time to 2010. The first year of the PCM.Daily Favourite Cyclist Contest and two climbers stood above the rest at the Tour de France.
Young Luxembourg Andy Schleck was well on his way to his to winning his first grand tour when his bike chain fell off on Stage 15. TDF veteran Alberto Contador took the race lead because of the technique trouble.
Then came Stage 17. The legendary climb up the Col de Tourmalet. Through the mist and fog, Schleck and Contador rode away from the peloton. Schleck did everything to try and drop Contador, but nothing worked.
They couldn't be separated all the way to the top. Out of respect, Contador let Schleck win the stage. But, Contador went on to win the tour... until he didn't.
Contador was stripped of his TDF title after testing positive for doping. He blamed a beef steak. Schleck, in the record books, won the 2010 Tour de France but injuries ended what looked to be such a promising career.
Now these two meet again. Another Col de Tourmalet to climb.
Here's who the finalists had to beat in order to get here:
| 3 | | Alberto Contador | | 3 | | Andy Schleck | | R1 | 14 |  | Dylan Groenewegen | | 14 |  | Christophe Laporte | | R2 | 6 |  | Fabian Cancellara | | 11 | | Thibaut Pinot | | R3 | 2 |  | Andre Greipel | | 2 | | Philippe Gilbert | | QF | 1 |  | Peter Sagan | | 1 | | Vincenzo Nibali | | SF | 9 | | Tom Boonen | | 13 | | Michele Scarponi | |
Who is going to be the All-Time PCM.Daily's Favourite Cyclist?
3 Andy Schleck vs. 3 Alberto Contador

One last duel, champs. One more time.
You duelled over Arcalis, Verbier, Romme, Colombiere, Ventoux, Roche aux Faucons, Haveluy, Avoriaz, Madeleine, Croix Neuve, Ax 3 Domaines, Bales, Tourmalet, Manse, Izoard, Galibier, Telegraphe and L' Alpe.
One last battle. Got a little bit teary eyed thinking of those years.
Ofc voted.

A very fitting final to say the least, but without the forum being down Schleck wouldn't even be here so yeah.
Voted!
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.
