Word from Sorcha Rosa

The late 1990s Tour era remains one of the most visually distinctive periods in cycling history. The bikes, team kits, component design, photography and magazine layouts all had a completely different atmosphere to modern cycling media. Pieces like this are increasingly difficult to find, especially in readable collector condition.
