What I'd like to see are some of the more iconic rides of people like Hinault (when did he beat a demonstrator?), Merckx, Cipollini, Ullrich, Indurain, Lemond, etc. Thanks.
Fignon losing the ITT into Paris and losing the Tour by 8 seconds in '89... that was awesome and something that everyone still talks about frequently.
