Also, it's nice to read an article about cycling that doesn't mention doping. Those were the days . . .

No kidding!

For all you youngsters, there was a time when cycling was even "fringe-er" than today. A time when Velo News was shaped like a newspaper, Winning was our main source of Euro-info and you could call a 900 number to hear TdF results on, get this, the same day as the stage!! Back then Ultegra was called 600 and SunTour Superbe Pro was a killer gruppo. Pre Postal, our lives were just a little simpler and less carbon.
