......for the right day
There are times you just seem to have the rigfht ride for the right day. And boy, does it matter. There are so many things that have to align - and this year, I've seemed to have had my fair share of them.Still the greatest ride ever
The 1989 Tour de France final time trial was exactly that. Greg LeMond (a freaking stud!) had been off the tour for two years from a hunting accident, following his incredible and improbable win in '86. At this final stage, he is literally only 50 seconds behind the leader, after 21 days and a couple thousand miles of racing. Most people still don't know that he has something like 35 - 40 lead pellets still in his body - in very dangerous places. With that setup, watch this video of that final race.I don't care what anyone says. He was "bread and water" (clean) and still an inspiration.
