Beautiful little film about the visit of the legendary Fausto Coppi to London at the height of his fame in the 1950s. Fascinating glimpse into cycling & racing back then. Very well put together.

Thanks! Really enjoyed that.

First heard the name Coppi in connection with Pogi's successful 2025 attempt on his standing record of 5 non-consecutive Giro di Lombardia wins. Also enjoyed the short bio below:
