Cyclist Robert Hunter leaves tour for birth of daughter
As the Tour de France gets underway tomorrow, it will do so with one more dad in the pack, for cyclist Robert 'Robbie' Hunter welcomed his first child Thursday morning. Mandy Inga arrived more than two weeks early, weighing in at 4 lb, 6 oz and measuring 18 inches in length. The Tour's doping controllers gave the 31-year-old cyclist -- who won the 11th stage of the race last year -- special permission to fly to Switzerland in order to be by wife Claudia Hunter's side as she delivered their daughter. It was "the proudest and most humbling moment of my life," Robbie said, "I am ecstatic."
