Bikes built there won four gold, three silver and two bronze medals at the 1984 Summer Olympic Games, second place in the 1985 Tour De France(ridden by Greg Lemond) and first place in the 1985 Coors Classic(again ridden by Greg Lemond)."

Now who was building these bikes is a good question? And somehow I just can't remember or picture Lemond on a Huffy when he was battling it out with Hinault in 1985?
