64 St Laurent documentary-60 Cycles
Came across this and thought I’d share. It has some great footage of the race and the soundtrack is really good also. Race sounds are also in there a really adds to the feel. I hope you enjoy it like I did.

That is one of my favorite bits of cycling film. I have spent quite a few evenings making screen shots in order to identify the bikes that are in it:
Like this Marcel Kint:
This RIH Sport:
And this Groene Leeuw:
One of my favorite shots is that of Jos van der Vleuten, riding a Dossche Sport, IIRC, boyishly grinning at the camera:

I love all the color... from the jerseys, to the bikes, to the cars. The world was a more colorful palate back then. The soundtrack is quite good, if not a bit oddly spaced and timed within the film. It sounds like someone was inspired by Booker T and the MG's.
