I was 14 and on a school trip to the Alps and I was lucky enough to see the Peloton buzz past me…I kept the freebies that were thrown out for the crowds for years. Still managing time for 250+ miles a week at 44.. Cheers for the upload, subbed 👍
In hindsight, knowing what is known today about cycling in the 1990s, the extent of the doped performances is ASTONISHING. Easier to count those who WEREN'T doping....
I remember on the broadcast, Phil (at 1:10:30) yells - Outchakov has everything! We would sprint county line signs that fall and yell it at each other.
As every year: Indurain attacks on the first mountains stage. He did that all but one year. Still every time Liggett is busy trying to explain that Indurain never attacks. This year Indurain even attacked on his way into Liege as well... Waisting all that energy the day before the time trial must have cost him deerly on the time trial.
I think Indurain probably had some extra special 'help' to get thru what was probably a targeted phase of the race. In these days riders could ride this way and still recover.

Thanks for sharing!
Rest In Peace Fabio 🙏🏼 I remember watching this tour live and that’s what I remember most.
I dont know why
But i enjoy the 90's cycling more than nowadays
Its really hard to explain
I agree except since 2020 it has become like 90s in entertainment thanks to Bernal, pogacar and mvdp imo
Same here
Same. The whole thing just seems to have more personality then. Even the doping couldn't take that away. It seems slightly sterile these days
Cuz GC guys ddnt wait til the last 4k of the last climb to attack , back then
Because most things were better in the 90's.
Unforgetable Stage No.16 headed to Pau..
Very brave riders in peloton..
Awesome......
Laurant Jellybean. Barney Rice. Miguel Enduring.
Gay wizz was also a great one

Yeah but Le Tour had personalty back then. Like most things it seems to lack
" Characters " these days. Motorsport is the same though.

obviously camera stabilization technology not a thing in '95!
Eu sou fã desse vídeo.
Parabéns.
Epo in the house
microdosing is still around
Don't care. 90's cycling is still the best. It lacks any personalities these days sadly
@@colinstewart1432 yes i agree love 90s with epo
@@shane-irish It's like they're prepared to break out the industrial-strength pharmaceuticals to win, it shows they wanted it bad 🤣
Love how all these bald old men are the peak speed on a bike
Fabio Casartelli killed during the race
I remember. After being casevaced off the mountain, he went into cardiac arrest in the medical helicopter. Don't think a helmet would've saved him.
He wasnt killed u knucklehead, he died. He crashed and went head firat in to a concrete blo k
