If you need any information on riders covered within the CR List dates this is a good site: http://www.dewielersite.net/db2/wielersite/coureurfichestats.php?coureurid=6972 This site also covers riders prior to CR datings and modern riders as well. Didn't the American Pro Magnani known in France as l'Americain win the 1934 Grand Prix Urago in Nice? In the early 1960's a British firm A.P.C.Bowles in Walthamstow East London handled the agency for Urago and they were one of the most expensive bikes at one of the Earls Court Cycle Shows early in that decade. If anyone has copies of Cyclings from 1960 to 64 I am sure there is a right up onthe show Urago, it was also shown at the Schoolboys Own and Hulton Exhibition. Croeso Cymru Joe King Nr.
