At the end of the eleventh stage.  Bagneres-de-Luchon to Florence 109.4 miles.

Joop Zoetemelk and Jean Francois Rodriguez were tossed out for flunking their
dope test.  They received a $470. fine, a ten minute penalty, and last place
for the stage where they flunked the test.  Team officials aren't very fast-
these penalties are for the second and third stages respectively.

Several members of the Columbian amateur team place in the top ten in the tenth
stage-that and the winning speed of 19 mph lead one to suspect the stage 
was rather hilly.
