Cancellara bids goodbye to home crowd at Tour de France (The Associated Press)

This is why Fabian Cancellara is retiring. For his last Tour de France, the classics specialist and time trial expert earmarked Monday’s 16th stage for a special, emotional finish on the medieval streets of Bern, just four kilometers from his house. Cancellara has been in the background, working for his Trek-Segafredo team leader Bauke Mollema, who lay second overall.
