Thanks to Ms Tree mentioning Paolo Savoldelli on the back of the bike on the T-A, it got me thinking.

What is the most obscure job an ex-cyclist has done once they finished.

I know Gianni Bugno is a helicopter pilot and one of the Plankaert's did a VERY strange job that I can't remember now

    Is he related to Christian? :lol:

    A couple of years ago CS ran an article on a pro cyclist who took over the family business running a brothel.
