This footage is simply amazing... 1973, the Tour of Ocaña and Fuente, the Tour of Les Orres... and in colour!!! Can i ask where did you get it? Some documentary, maybe?
What an animal! Nobody wants to set the pace. It's all they can do to follow! When it's all you can do to stay on the wheel in front of you, it's pretty hard to attack! Pretty good strategy! He is pushing a huge gear! At 3:18, you can see that Fuente is not leading, but where is Ocana? On Fuente's wheel! He knew where the wheel to watch was!
NIN pumps me up! I love it! I can still enjoy the retro footage, but on the other hand, if theres any commentary to go along with the race coverage, please USE THAT Instead of THE MUSIC!
@trueeasyrider - I disagree, i think the music is very evocative especially the slower track from 3:20. With these riders commentary just not necessary, beautiful to watch.
what are the tracks used?

Coppi, Pantani & Fuente are obviously the best climbers of the history.
