It’s 25 years since the giant figure of Eros Poli pulled off one of the most surprising Tour De France victories ever with a solo breakaway over Mont Ventoux. Eros recalls that memorable mountain stage and reflects on his time as the Lion King’s lead-out man.

 

David Millar faced many challenges in the saddle during his career but nothing could have prepared him for his upcoming ride – Leicester to Blackburn in the company of Rouleur’s Stuart Clapp, “if I can stop him talking”. Good luck with that… He explains why he’s doing it, and looks forward to the Giro and Tour.

 

Meanwhile, Stu is getting excited about Rouleur’s special Desire edition and a top secret product launch in Tuscany.
