I did not know where to but my experience..after I wached 2000 giro..

I would like to talk about Cipollini..

I am still quite fresh in cycling..started to following at 2006..(after that how many has possible..Smile)

Then I started to look recorded races from past..(oldest I find was 1987 TdF)..and ofcorse 1974 Roubaix.

Cipollini was something what I never saw before..how all team was around one sprinters. How he was holding team mate bike..to get help in uphill..he was so close to team mate and trying to hide this(helicopter shot got this). Pushing ..zig-zaging in sprint..
Also few funny moment..team mate was pulling like lead out man should do.. Then he looked behind ..like. Come on Cippo..go and take this win.
Cippo was not there..he just quit racing.
Cippo in Giro is terrible view..Smile

A former pro who raced with Cipo once told me that while racing in Georgia he shouted out (in a grupetto) at those around him "Push me ,for I love Georgia" and they did! Smile

Cipollini had the reputation of being a bit of a playboy, but from what I've heard no one trained harder than him.
