hello. i'm trying to look for that "RAINY DAY BUNCH SPRINT FINISH" picture where there is no clear-cut visible winner and team (except for - i can remember - rabobank, because of that orange jersey) because their kits are all wet and dirty. i'm sure it's not in a grand tour and it's not a very famous race but it's UCI race (the rabobank jersey i can remember says it). it's a picture where it's a very wild sprint and the rain and the water grits from the ground are all over making the picture not very clear. i can guess it's a race from about 3-5 years ago. if anyone out there can tell me what race that was or better yet send me the picture (my email is enaldt@yahoo.com). i appreciate it. one more thing, this picture used to be sold as a poster at the "old cyclingnews website's store". thanks

Not this one?

Can't find a pic at the moment but maybe the 2001 tour de france when Erik Dekker from Rabobank won a sprint in the wet and the peloton that day finished some 36min back and outside the time limit and over 160 riders should have been eliminated. The finish was in Pontarlier i believe.

It was the first thing i thought of as soon as you mentioned it.
Just a thought.
