+1 for the Pantani video. Won't be a lot of peoples favourite but the guy was an utter legend as far as I am concerned. All the hallmarks of an archetypal Italian, style, romance, charisma and tragedy.

Walked into a bike shop in Manchester about five years ago and instantly recognised a bike. I looked at the guy behind the counter and he just nodded. They'd been lent one of Pantani's grand tour winning Bianchi's. Resplendent in Celeste and still with Pantani's embroidered saddle. Breathtaking. I couldn't believe it, had just read his biography too.

'I don't need drugs to win races, I only need mountains!'

Perhaps not entirely true but who cares? Not me.

Molto Bueno.

Ullrich, Johnny Cash, what more do you need?

all show no go

In my humble opinion, the greatest cycling movie ever made.

Truly inspirational...

(The sort of film the marketing boys at Rapha watch, then release a tiny bit of sex-wee in their merino pants)

+1 to that.

Actually, it's the only cycling movie I've ever seen, but it is still fantastic!

I know there are people on here that detest Rapha but this is well worth watching however you feel about the company:-

Makes you realise how tough they were a century ago.
