The late great Robin Williams with Lance. Check out the left brake lever on Lance’s bike. Quiz—-Anyone know why it’s not an STI? (I know, but I’m quizzing everyone)

I saw Walton riding at the Tecate-Ensenada that year. He sailed right by me on a climb. I was surprised to see a big guy climb that well.
