They were young and racing for Motorola.

When Bodies the Exhibition arrives in your town, wear this, and ride around the place, freaking people out.

Or for when Strava segments aren’t enough and you want to show off how are on-form you are. Plus it comes with a blood red pad. Remember to ride fast like Cipo.

Per Google, Wiggins Bone Idleness, as the Giro nears.

At last, I can show off a shot of a raging @f_cancellara that now graces the cover of @VeloNews. Proud.

cadenced:

R.I.P Fiorenzo Magni (December 7, 1920 - October 19, 2012). He won the Giro in 1948, 1951 and 1955 and the Tour the Flanders in 1949, 1950 and 1951

During Stage 12 of the 1956 Giro descending from Volterra  Magni fell and broke his collarbone, but rode on to the finish then went to hospital. You better go home, they said. Better to stay in the Giro, he replied. The next day was a rest day. The “Lion” got himself bandaged up and back on the bike: Livorno-Lucca, Lucca-Bologna, the time trial climb from Bologna to San Luca. Since Magni couldn’t press on the handlebars on the climb, his mechanic Faliero Masi cut a piece of inner tube, tied it to the handlebars and told him to bite on it. It worked. He still made it all the way to Milan and finished second behind Charly Gaul.

Thanks to Giro d’Italia for the text and la bicicleteria for the photograph.

Patrick Dewaere and Gerard Depardieu ride bikes.

At that moment, when Rodriguez hesitated and a panda ran up on his wheel, Dan Martin attacked. Then rode to the win at Leige-Bastogne-Leige.

UPDATE

LBL post now has 100% more Panda.

Castellania is an entire town shrine to Fausto and Serse Coppi. Goosebumps for a solid hour.
