Has anyone worn the maillot jaune from start to finish in the Tour de France?
Yes indeedy. Maurice Garin won all six stages of the first ever TdF in 1903. Ottavio Bottechia was the next to hold the coveted golden fleece from start to finish in 1924 – although he shared the yellow jersey with another rider for two stages. Nicolas Frantz and Romain Maes were the next riders to replicate the efforts of Garin and Bottechia in 1928 and 1935 respectively.
