Video of the Day
Is this great race coverage? No. Great cinematography? No.
What it is, is Milan-San Remo from 1977. Retro in all its glory. Teams like Peugeot, Brooklyn, Raleigh, KAS wearing black shorts, simple jerseys, not a helmet in sight, and a groovy soundtrack. First place: Jan Raas Second: Roger de Vlaeminck

Hey, that is cool. Is it my imagination or do they seem slower than racers of today? It might be interesting to compare some kind of performance parameters to see what kind of a difference there was. Certainly no EPO was around in that time but I'm sure amphetamines were being used by a few.
Carter was president of the US at this time wasn't he?
I was thinking they were really slow too and immediately went back to look again. It looks like the film was slowed down. In the ridiculously slow sprint even the fans are applauding slowly.
