I agree. A loser he is.
Moreover, I'll give him credit for his 6 tours de France. But he's NOT a great cyclist as he refuses to race in other important races. He prepares for 12 months each year for the upcoming tour de france. The greatest of all times is, and will always be Belgian Eddy Mercks.
But, irrespective of his successes, like you said, to leave his wife is beyond despicable. Shame on him, LOSER!!
