Unfortunately, the only place you see Gitane anymore is in the "Retro" file. But is there anything better than this picture?

And I thought I was cold on this morning's ride.

Great photo!

-3 degrees F this morning at our place. There's not much desire on my part to be out riding in that.

My friend Dazza was mechanic for the mens under 23 team at the Worlds this year Cool . He had the opportunity to meet and chat with Cool Cool Sean Kelly Cool . Kelly's take on the younger generation of riders Confused ? "They're all f......g soft". Laughing Looking at this pic, I would have to agree. Despite the advances we have made in tyre compounds, helmets and thermal clothing, if the weather is like that today the race gets cancelled Rolling Eyes . Bit of snow never killed anyone Twisted Evil . Just ask Andy Hampsten. Wink
