Beautiful Mordecai, just beautiful. But, now I yearn. The picture of 1903 winner Hippolyte Aucouturier doesn't load or is a bad link, and that name has to be the 2nd best ever .... no actually, 3rd best name ever in competitive cycling***. And call me an ignoramus but Fausto had a brother ??? Who's Serse?
Anyway, brilliant. I learnt that many of those earlier riders look like me on a fixed gear. only much smaller.
Hippolyte Aucouturier - what a name !!!!!!
ciao,
