Inga Thompson behind I think, that's just from memory though. Puy de Dome?

Freddy's comeback, 81 Tour. Won 5 stages, incl the Champs Elysées and the green jersey. Also the world road title that year too, his second world title. Won THIRTEEN stages of the 1977 Vuelta, and the GC also. Didn't do much in 82 though. Had big problems off the bike of course. That Colnago is to die for..

The first Kelloggs city centre race in Dublin. I was there! Merckx was guest starter. Roche won on his own. Kelly was in the group behind, but he was never going to chase his countryman. I got Merckx's autograph!
Home in time to see the highlights on TV. Happy days.

Another who suffered under the 'new Merckx' tag. Think he won a Tour stage by 30min, then lost the same amount next day.
