What the pros do and ride?

Hello Trigods and All,

Yes there is a little bit going on with the pros:

Thursday, June 7
Latest Cycling News - Homes searched in Belgium, Franck Vandenbroucke attempts suicide, RFEC waits for UCI’s answer, Riis out of Tour record books, Rojas, also in the Vuelta?, Cofidis to stop sponsorship?, Agritubel holds pre-Tour camp in Pyrenees, German investigators question d’Hont, British Cycling criterium series

But I think it only is news in Europe.

Cheers,

Neal

I think it would be much more interesting to see what rich AG’s ride rather than the stuff pros are PAID to ride. I’m sure I haven’t seen them all but the very best porn bikes I’ve seen on this site didn’t belong to pros. Just my 2 pence. :slight_smile:

Few pro guys get paid to ride a certain bike. Most are happy if the can borrow one for free and return it after the season.

I remember hearing from my buddy, who was criss-crossing the globe doing tris in the late 80’s and early 90s, that most of the pros he saw had bikes that many would consider pretty plain or even ‘junky.’
