| Go Finion! Strange how 2 guys can dominate like that, shows how much more competitive our sport has become these days. Scary decent wow. Flat tire going around corners that guy is awsome! Less than 50 finishers wow... These days even John Leiswen could finish Worlds! |

| When Lemond attacks Fignon on the climb and reaches down to shift up a gear, Fignon knew it was all over for him. That is the greatest move to break someone's spirit. Works every time! |

| Sean Kelly used to be the fastest sprinter in the 80s. LeMond really earned that medal. |

| Ahh the days when doping wasnt as wide spread/easy to do. All the guys tried to push the envelop but in the early 90s it all changed. Lance was the best at the Tour de France but thats it. NOT the greatest cyclist but a really really good one. |

| Lemond could have had a great 5 year stretch of major wins if he didn't get shot! That was a great win though. He rode for a smaller Belgian team that year and still kicked ass! On Bottecchia bicycles no less! |

| Great race, I was there at the time. I also met Greg Lemond on training the days before. This climb was really steep, something you don't notice on the images. |

| No. I wish. I was an amateur back when Greg was. Mostly he rode category 1 when he was a junior, but sometimes he slummed it with us. |

| god this brings back memories..i was 16 when lemond made his comback..seeing them in this race was awesome..both of these guys at that point in thier career they had wona few tours between them and both had thier own fan base..this was a cool time in my life because i was really into the sport..I still am..but compared to today..the 80s were the golden years..i hope the day comes when we can be treated to another rider vs rider battle..i still have a system u jersey! |
| Could this be the ... ( 1 month ago by gerloughnanne) |
| Could this be the greatest worlds ever.I think so. As an Irishman it still leaves a bitter taste in my mouth the fact that Kelly lost this one.Was he undergeared,I think so but Lemond was riding in a state of grace that day.Could Kelly have beat him. I like to imagine he could. The look on kellys face as he crossed the finish line is heartbreaking. Look at the calibre of men at the end Lemond Fignon(who won the Giro that year)Rooks Bauer.Greatest era in cycling Kelly forever. Lemond = pure class |

| What a race. Def one of the all time greats. The difference between Kelly and Roache was the nouse that Roche possed otherwise this should have been Kelly's finest hour. Can anyone tell me the name of the climb outside Chambery? I'm there next summer and want to dream... |
