A true inspiration and will be sadly missed - poignant for a few reasons - some of them personal.

RIP L.Fignon.

the tv presenter tells Fignon that he will have his place next year on the TDF but then Fignon just collapses in tears . he must have known he would not be there .

O dear one of my all time schoolboy heros sad sad news a real trier and character.Bob Maitland a local cycling legend also passed away this week :cry:

Off topic but a real shame also - Bob was the president of Concorde Road CC which I was a member of in my teens. Very weird as I looked them up today after many years.

RIP Also.
