Sorry matz, but this story was 'scooped' yesterday on this thread How to shut up a Frenchman , and in fact there were three banned substances (toothpaste was the third).

3yards,

They don't need toothpaste... when you don't have teeth to brush, why pay good money for the toothpaste...?? :tongue2:

Ha, that must be why toothpaste is banned gbear. If you have it (toothepaste) in your posession you are obviously a foreigner worthy of French ridicule and angst.

 

[methomps]

Dihard is right. The French are just worried because they know that Lance could conquer the entire country on his bike with a water pistol.

I think you guys might be confusing the French with the British. I believe it is the British that use pure sugar for toothpaste. At least that is what I learned on Saturday Night Live.

I hear that in order to give their countrymen a fair chance at winning, the French are creating a French-only race for next year, the "Tour du Pansy"...
