As you can see, I have made some small changes myself, I hope you are OK will all of them. Just four things remain from my point of view:
- Optional: I feel that cycling articles usually use British English, not American. Naturally, since this event took place in Canada, one might argue that this speaks for using Canadian English. However, I would rate consistency with other cycling articles higher. Then again, there does not seem to be a clear consensus of the WikiProjekt to use British English either. So I'll leave up to you if you want to change it.
- I think the practice is that you just have to be consistent so I'll just stick with American. Disc Wheel (T + C) 19:29, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
- Race summary, last paragraph. In the second sentence you name the riders in the chase group, but not Merckx. But he was in there right? So he should be included.
- Fixed. Disc Wheel (T + C) 19:29, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
- Aftermath: When speaking about Merckx Triple Crown, you should point out which Grands Tour he won that year.
- Fixed. Disc Wheel (T + C) 19:29, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
- Aftermath: The sentence starting with "Taylor emphasized" is pretty long and also grammatically a mess. I would recommend cutting it into two sentences, with the second starting after "two of them finished".
- Fixed, I think I made it less awkward. Disc Wheel (T + C) 19:29, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
Overall, a well researched and written article on a race so long passed. Good work! Zwerg Nase (talk) 18:26, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
