Eddy Merckx, De zesde Tour
13 juli 1975. De koninginnerit van de 62e Ronde van Frankrijk brengt de renners over niet minder dan vijf cols van Nice naar Pra Loup: van het strand van de Côte d'Azur naar een mondain skioord in de Alpen, meer dan 200 kilometer landinwaarts. Als Eddy Merckx op de voorlaatste beklimming van de dag, de Col d'Allos, ten aanval trekt, is iedereen ervan overtuigd: Merckx is op weg naar een zesde Touroverwinning. Het record van de Fransman Jacques Anquetil - vijf overwinningen - komt dit jaar in Belgische handen. Met ware doodsverachting stort Merckx zich in de gevaarlijke afdaling naar beneden en begint met meer dan anderhalve minuut voorsprong aan de slotklim naar Pra Loup. Maar dan gebeurt iets dat niémand voor mogelijk heeft gehouden: plots stokt het ritme van de Kannibaal, hij komt nog amper vooruit. Tot hun verbijstering zien de achtervolgers Merckx weer voor zich uitrijden, één voor één halen ze hem in, en laten hem achter.
