Great job, Nicolas. I love the jersey's - that is quite a collection.

I'm still waiting for the guy who sold me my TdF to call and say I can buy his Hinault signed jersey. Patience is a virtue.

Cool site. I guess I didn't realize how big a fan you were. I am going to work on something top secret for you....

I'm hooked !

Thanks everyone for the support, I have tons of magazines to scan, that should keep me busy for a year, at least...then I'll ask for your help, especially for issues of winning magazine : great pics in there.

Stay tuned !

Merci !

J'ai l'intégrale de Miroir de 78 à 91 mais si tu as des numéros après, notamment 92, je pense qu'il y a des trucs qui peuvent être intéressants. Jusqu'ici je n'ai scanné que des bouquins, du genre "année du cyclisme", je vais attaquer les magazines à partir de maintenant.

Babelfish translation to English:

"Thank you! J' have l' integral of Mirror from 78 to 91 but if you have numbers afterwards, in particular 92, I think qu' there are tricks which can be interesting. Jusqu' here I n' scanné that books, " kind; year of the cyclisme" , I will attack the magazines from now."

je regarderai ça dans les jours qui arrivent car j'ai des magazines de 78 jusqu'aux années 2000.
C'est hallucinant nos points communs,mon premier vélo était un peugeot dont j'avais exigé de mon père qu'il le repeigne bleu gitane!!il m'avait trouvé la tenue complète renault elf ,j'étais fier devant mes potes de l'école de cyclisme!!mon instituteur était inquiet car tous mes dessins représentaient des vélos!!
bref les murs de ma chambre étaient recouverts de poster et de photos de B.Hinault et bien sur Greg Lemond,amusant de me souvenir maintenant de ma recherche pour acheter des lunettes oakley,un compteur, bref toutes les nouveautés que je voyais sur les vélos de Lemond!!
bon travail et à bientot...


sorry for all this words in french but it's funny to remember when i was a kid through this site...

I just read the translation of your story...really cool. I did the same thing. I had a japanese built bike, and crashed badly during a race. I repainted the bike blue, and put Gitane stickers on it. I couldn't afford the 1987 Team Pro that I wanted!

By the way, as far as nostalgia and fun talk is concerned, Nicolas is the best at getting it started. Thanks man!

Thanks Nicolas, What a great evening!!!!.

What a great site. You've done a wonderful job ---years of dedication and I can't imagine the number of hours in bringing this site to Fruition.

An amazing collection of Jerseys--I really enjoyed all of the images--particularly like the images from '86, esp the first B&W of Greg in the Winter garb and his "Bomber" googles.

Thanks for this wonderful resource---seems like this would definetly qualify for a "Link".

Thanks for making my evening.

C.A.
