Love seeing Steve Bauer in his prime. He got robbed the year prior at Roubaix.

well, and kind of robbed at the World's too...

Thanks for the vid--watching it in pieces between other chores.

.. kind of? I still can't help but wonder who got paid off there. And then the subsequent (frivolous) lawsuits.

e- to be fair Fondriest was the strongest and freshest, but I still think the DQ was uncalled for and partly the result of his reaching for his DT shifter.

Maybe I'm just being nostalgic, but why did everything appear to be much cooler in 1991?

[54ny77]

Because it just was.

I got a kick out of the versions of shifting on the team bikes. From barcons to STI. No one was riding the same thing!

Aaah the days of skinny tubes and hard men. Miss the aesthetic of the day
