what is it with american productions that they had to have the dreadful naff music in the background?!!! can’t the american viewers get excited without it?! thank goodness for the uk’s channel four version – minus cheesy chat and tunes!!
This is truly epic, the music rocks and the fotage is superb!
Thx for uploading
@nightowl8936 Excellent to see a bigwig has the money, believe me I would but I just had a kid and that’s my priority. Peace and bike forever!

I’m gonna lead by example and talk to socalrider909 and buy several races I remember from 20+ years ago. Like Paris-Roubaix, and this Tour, and the 1988 and 1989 Tour, and the 1987 and 1989 Ironman, if he has them.
@nightowl8936 Just trying
@mattsnow81
how about you buy the damn thing?
Fantastic memories here. I used to watch this on CBS, who at the time had awesome coverage of the Tour and Paris-Roubaix. Music is John Tesh’s, who also narrates the race along with the incredible Phil Ligget. Want to get my hands on DVD’s of this if surpass definition…thanks for posting.
“Hinault the worlds largest back stabber. … Hinault promises to return the favor … only to break away when LeMond is struggling … how French!”
This is frightening naiveté.
Greg is naive still, and so are his fans. When I heard the intelligence, I was empathetic, but the reality is that Greg’s expectations are the source of the problems that Greg has with this world in general, and ever cyclist who proves to be stronger than he was.

I have to agree with this. Hinault may have meant what he said when he said the promise, initially. With all, he KNEW he would have lost the jersey had LeMond not held back.
But maybe the next year, with having gone down in history with 5 wins, he dared to dream of being singular in history with a 6th, forgetting about LeMond.
I mean Col de la Colombiere where Frank Schleck won.
I mean Verbier ’09 where Frank Schleck won.
umm what?
one of the best race stages of all time. Along with mont ventoux 09.
man, that musics awesome!
i despise that stupid corny music
those bikes look huge…….or is i tjus tme?
LeMond will FOREVER be THE GREATEST American cyclist (with Hampsten following)! LeMond raced to win! and NOT just the Tour de France! Velodrome, one-days, and grand tours! THAT is the stuff REAL cyclists are made of!
I’d over and done just how cheesy those 80′s synth soundtracks sounded, I know John Tesh did all that. But still was possibly the best Tour in recent memory, I met l LeMond a few years ago and he said it was a toss up which was more satisfying, that Tour or the World’s win. Hell of a nice guy.
It’s the dream video by Amstrong, I see Hinault and it’s seems like Contador ja,ja,ja terrible luck Lance.-
Like that pat on the back from LeMond at 7:30. And looks how fresh they look!
Apart from for john tesh, the only bicycle that guy has ridden is one without the seat.
If you’re used to 4,000 calorie breakfasts, I suppose it’s a hard habit to break when you no longer ride hundreds of kikometres every day!
the badgers aggression is surely missed. He made things happen and that was exciting
i like lemond and hinault but why do thses guys get all stout and puffy with they retire? lemond is up to two hundred pounds. don t these guys have any pride? with all they have a reputation to keep up
macgyver rocks….
