The Roman Emperor chooses Shimano

SA GP yesterday.

Uh, his right, but yeah. Who again was the motor racer who
cycles as training pretty seriously; not him was it?

Maybe he needs to switch to Campag if he's going to beat #46

Most of them do. Most formula cars and motorcycles are too
abusive to drive/ride without being in very good
cardiovascular shape, and many drivers use cycling to build
that cardiovascular shape. Paul Tracy, the Champcar racer,
was sponsored by Fondriest, who gave him some nice Record-
equipped bikes in exchange for a logo on his helmet. I can
also think of others - Emerson and Christian Fittipaldi (I
once saw a picture of Emerson on a Zipp time trial bike,
with a Marlboro logo painted on the disk - "isn't it ironic,
dontcha think?"😉, Walter Rohrl (who was supposedly a pretty
good amateur bike racer in addition to a World Rally
Champion), Bob Wollek (who died in a bicycling accident in
Florida while training for the 12 Hours of Sebring sportscar
race), Alain Prost, Michael Schumacher, etc.

In the 125-cc category of road racing world
championship, there's an Italian rider called Max
Sabbatani, who's 150 cm tall and weighs 39 kg. Shouldn't
he make a pretty good climber?

I read where Mat Mladin was riding 300 miles/week last year.

Was the logo for Shimano cycling or Shimano fishing or
indeterminate?

Wonder if he's blamed the logo for causing him to lose
yesterday..."The logo..it slow me down..I can't compete if I
don't have the right equipment!!" Heehee..

Max didn't seem to have anything to complain about after
that race. I'd say he was rather pleased to end up
second. But it's true that he has been (and likely will
be) fairly vocal about percieved equipment issues.
