1962 Le Tour

This is a really well put together period piece from the '62 TdF. Forwarded to my by all-around great guy Aaron. Seems like doping was a big deal, just as today. But then they didn't pee-test you, you simply died from it. Maybe that's a way to fix doping!

I really like watching them search out water and beer. Still carried their own tires for roadside repair as well. Yeah, that was a bit of a different age...

Here's part one:
