campionissimo.

the tour de france 2008 began this weekend and if you've never watched it before i suggest you try and catch a few stages. you can watch videos on the website and keep updated on who's in the running for le maillot jaune. known as 'the champion of the champions, fausto coppi won the yellow jersey twice and was {maybe} the lance armstrong of his day. i love this picture of him in his bianchi jersey. you can get your own in the classic 'celeste' color {which is prettier than yellow anyway} from prendas uk.
