Bikes: LOOK 595 Ultra/Campy Record 10Sp, restored Guerciotti/Campy C-Record 6 Sp, TIME RXR/Campy SR 11Sp, and Colnago C-60 with Campagnolo SR 11sp.
The bike is not that bad. Not my cup of tea personally, but not that bad. There are far too many others that are worse and get sold more. Orbea come to mind.
As far as Cipollini himself, the guy is simply a guy's guy. No bro-mance, but the guys simply is who he is. And yes, I do agree with a lot of what he said in that recent article. Not all of it, but most of it.

“I read an interview with Umberto Veronesi, a scientist, a reputed oncologist and Minister for Health,” Cipollini continued. “In five hundred years or more, human beings might have both sets of genitalia, male and female. I don’t want this evolution to have started already in cycling...."
