TdF Dropouts in 2005

This is a list of cyclists that have dropped out in the cycling race Tour de France 2005. The list can be used by the participants in the Internet Tour de France Game 2005 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 34 cyclists have dropped out. There are 155 left.
