I've just been watching todays stage live and at kilometre 175 to go, when Jurgen is caught after attacking, he pops 2 tablets concealed under his right leg riding shorts. He then washes them down with a drink.

What kind of tablets would these be?

The most famous ones are 2 Unlimited, I guess. And they were Belgian. Not the singer and the "rapper", but the producers. Also Belgian: Milk Inc, Technotronic, Kate Ryan... crappy enough, I'd say.

Milk Inc., Kate Ryan & Sylver etc. are all from the 00´s, not the 90's. The Benelux countries dominate the "new" dance scene more than they did back then.

Let's recap some of the nationalities from back then:

Belgium:
2 Unlimited
Technotronic

Holland:
Twenty 4 Seven
2 Unlimited (as stated before, they had Dutch vocalists)
Vengaboys

Switzerland:
DJ Bobo

Germany:
Haddaway (actually his father was Dutch)
Culture Beat
Snap
La Bouche (with American vocalists)
Mr. President

Italy:
Corona
Cappella

England:
Ice MC

Sweden:
Dr. Alban
E-Type
Dr. Bombay

And of course some from Denmark:
Whigfield
Hit'n'hide
Toy-box
Daze
Aqua (to some extent)

The songs I know by Milk Inc and Kate Ryan are from the late nineties, I think... don't know what they've done since.

even though Jurgen is sponsered by Omega Pharma, i think they were Jelly beans. Jelly belly is looking to break into european cycling in a big way.
PS dont eat the green ones :)
