Sean Kelly's Legs

Richard Longwoo · 2004-01-10T04:04:24+00:00

Does anyone here have "the" photo of Sean Kelly's legs? It's shot from his knees down and he's standing on a podium. His cycling shoes are wrapped with duct tape and every muscle group in his legs is distinguishable and the circulatory pipes are enlarged from internal pressure like a mofo.

i think you're refering to a pic from Winning magazine. if so, it was shot by seth goltzer. he's
still in the westport (ct) area.

historically are huge rivals.
Never mind. I just looked at the pic again and realized the jersey must be for the event,
not the team.

That is the leader's jersey for Paris-Nice. This happens all the time now that Nike is the
official supplier for the ASO races. It's not as if they are both (Puma and Adidas) sponsoring the
same entity.

There is a Cat 2 (Tim Knudsen) in Norcal that is much more veined up than that.
Not as fast though.

Actually, they were started by brothers: Adi Dasler and <some long German name here> Dasler. (Maybe
it is Dassler.)
Just lurking...

The clothing for Pro teams is generally provided by one manufacturer who has an overall sponsorship
deal with the team however riders are generally free to negotiate their own contracts for shoes and
eye wear. This is an area were riders can supplement their income with endorsements and its why you
often see riders on the same team with different shoes and eye wear.
