Hinault led a strike after the TdF riders were expected to ride three stages in one day
Maybe he should go into politricks

Did Hinault ride clean? I kind of assume that everyone from Coppi to Armstrong were at it in some form or other, with a few cleanish competitors coming in after that.
Quite possibly he was clean because anti-doping was not around much back then. However he is probably clean (he's French so benefit of the doubt applies).
