20 years ago today, il Pirata died
My beloved namesake has been gone for one score. Seems like forever.

I wore my pink Mercatone kit as an homage when I climbed the Stelvio.

“If I was the carpenter, then he was the artist. He had all the panache in the world, all the panache you could fit into a small climber, and I, if I'm honest, didn't have that.”

Time flies, I'm a Pantani fan too. When the weather clears up, I'll ride my Bianchi.
