My pal Dr. Art has ridden with Bauer and literally has a shrine in his house to the guy with signed jerseys, Bauer bike crap, and an actual Bauer steel frame from the 80's. In a glass case no less.
I have framed autographed posters of Lemond and Armstrong on opposite walls of my den. Sometimes, late at night, I hear them yelling 'doper' and 'bitter old man' at each other across the room.
