The 1995 FIT. As It Happened. Part 5.
from The Streak Triathlon Podcast
Stage 3 of the 1995 France Irontour was the Team Time Trial in Vichy. As an athlete, this is my absolute favourite format. I love the hard effort, working out a strategy and ultimately the team work involved to do well.On paper Assystem, with Pigg, Riccitello and Metters showing good form on Stages 1 and 2, were probably stronger than St. Quentin. But don’t count out the Fit For Fun Germans. They were a solid bike team and with 6 athletes from the same nation, maybe they’d trained a lot together.But paper isn’t the road. And St.Quentin were the reigning french national TTT champions. The Vichy stage ended up being close. Very close!https://thestreakpodcast.com/podcast/the-1995-france-irontour-as-it-happened
