I just opened the new issue of LeCycle. As noted on the cover, L'Eroica gets some mention, actually the piece includes 10 photos! Les San Francisco Weelmen (sp) are mentioned in the body of the piece in which it is noted how far flung the locations of participants are in this growing event. To me, one of the telling points is this, translated word for word roughly: "...all these bicycles have a glorious past and have demonstrated once more all their robustness."

I then found it more than a bit curious that there is, a few pages later, an article on how often, when and how we should be going about checking the condition of our carbon forks. Most telling is the picture of George Hincapie on the ground with his Trek's broken fork.
