From broom wagon to Tour winner
The first professional bike race that I got to see since it's last stage was in Boston. I had a Serotta Davis Phinney at the time and was able to get his autograph, but what sticks with me is Greg Lemond. After the sprinters did their thing, the rest of the peloton came through, and several minutes later, Greg Lemond was literally feet in front of the broom wagon.
Of course, he would go on to win that years TdF just 2 months later.
