In form Lemond was pretty untouchable.

On the one hand it’s weird that Big Mig never got pooped given the era he rode in. But I do remember reading an article talking about doing some physiological testing on him years after retirement and how his cardiovascular system was still freakishly powerful. So who the heck knows?

I guess they can’t cos they are already using them on the spare bikes that the neutral cars carry eh?

What do they do about pedals?

Some still have toe clips apparently.
Pretty sure others have various pedal options.

I thought droppers were a thing on like pinarellos like 5 years ago

I guess Nibali did one in 2016.

Oh interesting, though his was just for pedaling efficiency during a grand tour and had 20mm of travel

I like the mechanism though. Would def use that on a bike where you might sometimes want to get low. But give me more travel!

Continuing my enjoyment of children peripherally involved in pro cycling:
Dad carrying toddler on bike kicks hard to match pace with the leaders of the Volta a Catalunya.
Toddler helmet wobbles back and forth aggressively. Timed video link…
Go dad.
