Bikes of steel. balls of steel. Proper cycle racing.

I can't believe Phil was a commentator way back then, and he still sounds and talks exactly the same.

Lemond said afterward that he felt lousy all day and took the race one lap at a time. He said he didn't feel better until the last two laps. He also broke a rear spoke on the last lap, which he didn't have time to change. He loves circuit races and the harder the better. This race suited him perfectly. The amount of pure talent racing in the late 80's was incredible. Lemond, Fignon, Kelly, Rooks, Roche, Delgado, Bugno, the list goes on. Great time to be a cycling fan.

No helmets. Those were crazy days.

Saronni went by Boyer like he was parked!
-
It would have been nice to see Steve Bauer not get that flat, it would have made for a really exciting last 2 miles.

@oceanplanet602 Kelly wasn"t just a sprinter! he was world number 1, for 6yrs running. 3rd in the all time list classics winner. Paris- nice 7yrs running, Vuelta 88, go on wiki & look at his palmares. Sean Kelly is an all time great & Legend..

the leading group was averaging 90 k's on the descent, what speed was Kelly doing to catch them? Amazing ride. But, Lemond was the man on the day.

LeMond spent a week with me and my buds at the Encino Velodrome, learning how to sprint. His coach told him that if he wanted to succeed in Europe as a pro, he needed to master the sprint finish. He was a very fast learner. He was also keen to learn from the same guys who beat him in many criterium field sprints. That, and track sprinting, was our specialty. It seems that It was a week well spent! I think he was only 18 at the time. We were lucky to have crossed the line ahead of him a fewtimes

@Ingwe416
dipstick yourself.
i suggest YOU watch the video (providing you know which one i am talking about. Lejaretta and Vandervelde are cooked but Boyer is still doing fine. however Lemond makes is move past L and V with Saronni right in his wheel.
he had 2 other options, give Boyer a little more chance or let Saronni make the move and pass him in the final meters.
