Riding a '38 Autocycle Deluxe
It's interesting to note the difference in posture between Coppi and Bartali in those two iconic photos of these cycling legends taken while using the 'Cambio Corsa' in 1948.
Bartali looks relatively at ease compared to Coppi, who, like many of us (well, me at least) is having to look at what he is doing whilst he is doing it!
He looks a little flustered, but of course the photographer could have just caught him at an 'off' moment.
But then again, there was always a lot going on between those two, both on and off the bike.
A fascinating story!
