That's why tubular tires will NEVER be replaced. Thanks so much for this video. I was longing to find fitting reference to the remarkable ability of punctured tubulars in the peloton. I've red it too many times. I wanted to SEE it. Merci!
I always felt for Olano, his whole career seemed weighed down with expectation, the poor guy even looked like Indurian. Each tour that inevitable remark to Duffers on commentary from Stephen Roche in that thick Irish accent, 'Olano's gone David', when he got dropped again. Hearing that became a bit of drinking game for some fans. Pity, by many standards he had a great career. These were the most memorable World Champs there are have been. The last km drama, and then Big Mig showing he truly was a biggest of guys with that proud fist pump over the finish line. Stuff like that is why cycling has legends others sports can't touch.
You should listen to the Spanish commentary of it, surprised they never had an aneurysm with the level of excitement. Agree with you 100% on it being the greatest ever Worlds!
The facts are as you say, but that alleged hatred of the Spaniards towards Olano is not true. I remember that race as if it had happened yesterday. We all celebrated the double in Spain understanding perfectly well that cycling is a team sport and praising Miguel's class as a sportstman and as a person.
Gianetti and Puttini came from the very same region of Swiss, which is Ticino (the Swiss Italian part), the region where I live. As for Gianetti it was quite normal to see him as protagonist in this WC (he had a great season) but Felice Puttini was a real surprise, usually a gregario, but in Duitama his endurace qualities helped him. I have to add he was/is a very genuine and funny guy.
Olano looks soft and fat compared to today's GC contenders? I remember Olano he looked a little like Big Mig so naturally people expected him to be Miguel's successor. Unfair expectations.

Well done lots of names I haven't heard of in years.

For me this was best World championships ever. Great track with Cogollo climb. Bad weather. Best climbers of the 90s. Drugs. Epoc finale.

Sure, but unfettered use of EPO isn't why it was the best World championships ever.
Not really one of the most controversial cyclists in history but love watching all these old champions in your videos, thanks!
Olano and Indurain could pass for brothers.
Olano had so much class as a rider
7000 people in the channel without further ado
New subscriber and can't get enough of your videos. Best cycling videos on RUclips!
A great athlete. Strong. Very classy rider. Always fully admired him.
I was racing in Belgium in 1995 and now am really enjoying your videos. Thanks for making them

Really sad. When Stephen Roche won the world's with Sean Kelly as favorite covering attacks the fans loved it. More respect to Kelly & Indurain.
💚If Paul Kimmage had won the 1987 worlds Irish fans would have been over the moon as well…☘️Kelly and Roche-what a combo! 💪the trifecta✨
One of your best vids so far!
3:45 imagine crashing right in front of the medical center
Love the story. 💯👏
Great video, remember it well, was disgusted myself that big mig could not win, very hard to win as a big favourite
Spain was stacked at the 95' worlds, so many big names didn't even bother showing up because the course was so hard
Way to go buddy!

What about making a video of Juan José Cobo and José Rujano? :)
Why rujano? Not a shred of doping evidence. On the contrary
@@drunkensailor112 But he is an exciting character. There could also be a few videos without doping?
@@jakobkristensen9445 yes, but the thing is this guy doesn't research anything properly it would be full of shit I fear.
The fate of Benoni Beheydt was worse.
Gianetti was a bit dodgy. Wonder what happened to him…
Indurain was second in the rain
Indurain was like God in Spain
He was only a doped more in the bunch
Indurain🥳🥳🥳🥳

First
Since Miguel had a TUE he was not guilty. You cannot go back and claim someone is guilty when it is not on the prohibited list.
