Colnago at Rouleur Classic Show London WEEKLY #02 MAGAZINE 23 NOVEMBER FOR DEALERS 2015 COLNAGO AT ROULEUR CLASSIC SHOW LONDON The inaugural Rouleur Classic event was something a little more exclusive than just a bike show, it was an opportunity to enjoy the brands and athletes at the pinnacle of cycling, at the intimate location of Vinopolis (London) 19th-21st of November. Ernesto Colnago was one of the distinguished guests along with Eddy Merckx, Fabian Cancellara, Mario Cipollini and Alberto Contador to name the most famous. Fans appreciated this spectacular event and crowded the booth prepared by Windwave, the exclusive Colnago distributor for the UK. VAN AERT SECOND IN KOKSIJDE Van Aert is second in Koksijde after a thrilling race, but still lead the overall World cup classification On a cold, windy, and wet Sunday afternoon, veteran Nys fought out a breathtaking duel with young World Cup leader Wout Van Aert (Vastgoedservice-Golden Palace), which was in the balance right up until the final corner. Van Aert had to bow his head while the crowd was ecstatic to see the mud-clad 39-year-old Belgian rider claim the victory during the third World Cup round of the season. In the overall standing Van Aert lead with 220 points. Nys is second with 215 points, third Van Der Haar, 200 points. The next round of the World Cup is held in Namur, Belgium on December 20. Attached the new Colnago Prestige paint scheme designed for Wout. DID YOU KNOW THAT…. Ernesto Colnago in 1988, in collaboration with Ferrari, presents Concept. The first bike in the world with a hydraulic braking system, a desmodromic front gear and, above all, with carbon fiber frame with lugs. Launched at the Milan show (Italy), was a real revolution for the world of cycling and, at a distance of about thirty years, it is still an innovative bicycle. This project has helped Colnago to develop the carbon technology until the C40, the founder of the carbon frames, then copied by all the bicycle manufacturers.

  • Dopage 10 Février 2011
    REVUE DE PRESSE du 10 février 2011 QUAND BASSONS REPOND A LANDIS Velochrono - 3 févr. 2011 On a surtout relayé les accusations prononcées par Floyd Landis, dans un entretien accordé au Sunday Times, à l’encontre d’Oscar Pereiro et de Michael Boogerd. Mais l’Américain a aussi évoqué le cas de Christophe Bassons lors de cette entrevue. L’ancien coureur de Festina avait abandonné le Tour de France 1999 face à la pression d’un peloton qui l’avait isolé pour ses positions anti-dopage. Ancien parangon de la propreté, le Mazamétain était inconnu de Floyd Landis, qui a rejoint l’US Postal en 2001, année au cours de laquelle le Français a pris sa retraite sportive. Refuser de prendre des produits a été facile pour moi.Après que son intervieweur, Paul Kimmage – ancien cycliste irlandais ayant participé au Tour de France, reconverti dans le journalisme -, lui ait présenté le personnage, l’Américain se dit ainsi « impressionné ». « Je ne sais pas combien de gars ont eu la force de caractère pour ne pas se doper, mais ils ne devaient pas être nombreux », ajoutait-t-il. Sollicité par Cyclingnews pour réagir à ces déclarations, Christophe Bassons confie qu’il ne « pense pas avoir été courageux ». Il développe : « Pour moi, la question du courage intervient quand l’on a une crainte à surmonter, et je n’ai jamais eu peur. J’ai eu de la chance. J’ai eu une éducation saine, beaucoup d’amour dans ma vie, et pas de vide qui m’ait donné envie de me doper. Refuser de prendre des produits a été facile pour moi.

  • Alps Favor US, Says Movistar's Quintana
    SPORTS SATURDAY, JULY 25, 2015 Quintana bidding to eclipse ‘Lucho’ Herrera SAINT-JEAN-DE-MAURIENNE: Nairo Quintana will be aiming to cement the special relationship between Colombia and Alp d’Huez when tackling the mystical Tour de France climb today. The 25- year-old 2014 Giro d’Italia champion may be the most famous Colombian cyclist and Alp d’Huez the most iconic mountain in the sport, but it was Luis ‘Lucho’ Herrera who paved the way for riders in the Andean country 31 years ago. It was Monday, July 17 in 1984 on the 151km 17th stage of the Tour de France from Grenoble to Alpe d’Huez when the 23- year-old Colombian climber announced his talent to the world. The day started badly for Herrera, who was ini- tially distanced by the peloton as French pair Laurent Fignon and Bernard Hinault, the two favorites, battled for supremacy. But Herrera man- aged to cling on and by the foot of Alpe d’Huez he was alongside Fignon. Herrera attacked and reeled in Hinault before going on to win the stage at the Alpine colossus’ summit, joining the likes of cycling legends Fausto Coppi and Joop Zoetemelk as win- ners on Alpe d’Huez. Herrera, officially still an ama- teur, went on to finish the race 27th overall as Fignon won his second Tour-a year later Hinault would take revenge but France has not had a Tour winner since. The Colombian star would enjoy many more great days in cycling, winning the 1987 Vuelta a Espana and that same year earning his best finish in the Tour-fifth.
