This is a list of cyclists that have dropped out in the cycling race Tour de France 2004. The list can be used by the participants in the Internet Tour de France Game 2004 to check whether they have lost members of their teams.
Note: if a cyclist has dropped out of a team it does not mean that he will be replaced by a reserve. The reserve cyclists have only been used for completing the teams before the start of the game. After the game start the teams are fixed just like the teams participating in the Tour de France.
In total 42 cyclists have dropped out. There are 147 left.
The three numbers before the name of the cyclist represent the number of the stage he dropped out, his start number and the number of participants in the game that have chosen him in their team.
