Not to rain on your dorkiness, but the the poster asked about 7-Eleven, not 7-UP

The last year of 7-Eleven was 1990 I believe. The riders were probably Phinney, Dag-Otto, Hampsten, Kiefel, Roll, Bauer, Yates, Tomac, Heiden, Carmichael, hmmm... hard to remember that far back without some help.

Seven Elven?
Wasn't there a guy named Keebler on that team?

Find a place for Frankie on that list when you get it compiled.

LOL. I thought 7-11 disbanded in the early 90s.

Great picture. I want to ride my bike every time I see shots taken between 1975-1995. Not sure why. I think before '75 it was all about Merckx, Coppi, etc and a bit far back to be able and relate. After '95 it seems things got to specialized with riders making appearances for certain events. Guess nobody was happy riding "all-out" for 5-8 years anymore.

Bloody oath. Strictly pro-kit only. You had to buy a bike off a pro after the Sun Tour to get 'em.

How's this....a mate of mine had some Caloi stickers made so his aluminiuim Ken Evans/Evolution looked like a Brazillian Merckx.
