Nederlands:
Angers, 28 juni 1963. Een derde plaats in de tijdrit in Angers volstaat voor Gilbert Desmet om de gele trui aan te trekken. Smetje mocht in 1956, tijdens zijn Tourdebuut nota bene, al eens twee dagen proeven van de gele trui. Deze keer droomt hij echter van meer: het eindpodium. In de Tour de France stijgt de subtopper immers altijd boven zichzelf uit. Tien dagen lang beleeft hij een gele droom, maar in de Alpen moet hij zijn meerdere erkennen in de meer gevleugelde klimmers. Ook het podium kan de West-Vlaming door een verblijf in een vuil hotel in Grenoble vergeten. Zijn hele ploeg wordt ziek en de ene na de andere renner geeft op. Ook Desmet geeft er in de zeventiende etappe de brui aan met een schimmelinfectie in de darmen. Weg droom, weg Tourpodium. English:
Angers, 28 June 1963. A third place in the time trial in Angers was enough for Gilbert Desmet to don the yellow jersey. Back in 1956, during his Tour of France debut, Smetje was allowed to try out the yellow jersey for two days. This time around, however, he was hankering for much more: securing a final position. The second-tier cyclist always excelled in the Tour de France. For ten days he was lost in a yellow reverie, but in the Alps he had to acknowledge the superiority of the more experienced climbers. The cyclist from West Flanders could also kiss goodbye to the podium after his stay in a crummy Grenoble hotel. His whole team fell ill and one cyclist had to drop out of the race. Desmet also bowed out of the 17th stage because of an intestinal fungus infection. Farewell dream, farewell the Tour de France podium. Français : Angers, 28 juin 1963. Une troisième place dans le contre-la-montre à Angers suffit à Gilbert Desmet pour enfiler le maillot jaune. En 1956, alors qu’il faisait ses débuts au Tour de France, Desmet avait déjà pu porter le maillot jaune pendant deux jours. Cette fois, il rêve de plus : le podium final. Durant le Tour de France, ce coureur de second plan se dépasse en effet toujours. Pendant dix jours, il vit un rêve jaune, mais dans les Alpes, il doit s’incliner devant les grimpeurs plus chevronnés. Le coureur de Flandre Occidentale peut également oublier le podium à la suite d’un séjour dans un hôtel peu hygiénique de Grenoble. Toute son équipe tombe malade et les coureurs abandonnent l’un après l’autre. Desmet, atteint d’une mycose intestinale, finit lui aussi par jeter l’éponge, lors de la dix-septième étape. Adieu le rêve, adieu le podium du Tour de France! |
