LAURENT FIGNON

Good old larry.... Laurent Fignon.... who made us believe that frenchmen really were snooty, and prudish.... but so as not to speak ill of the dead.... Good Old Larry.... "HEY LARRY!!!!!!" .... Yeah, supposedly Bob Roll did exactly that a few weeks after that day in July in 1989.... I'd guess Larry didn't like Bob much :-)


And here we see Larry with the 2nd biggest sleaze bag from pro cycling (the BIGGEST slease ball being Jonny Boyer of course)...

Has to be from the 1989 tour (I recognize the jersey Greg has on)

And speaking of pics that still make american cycling chuckle under its collective breath.... the certain TT in Paris in 1989.... Late by 8 seconds larry... ah well...


The caption on this one said it was from his rookie season...



Scum bag in tow.... Larry climbing some mtn...




Hey Larry, that pony tail isnt terribly aero.... ooooh, I guess he's heard that already...



With what had to be the coolest looking jerseys (until MAPEI came along), the Renault Elf Gitane squad.... don't know if this is 'Pre-Greg' or if he was elsewhere....





Larry and DickHead..... I'm sure Larry (ok, Laurent), was a nice guy.... even as frenchmen go.... but if you had to stand next to Hinault, at least have the dignity to not touch the guy.... I mean.... You're not going to walk down the street, see a pile of dog crap, pick it up and shove it in your pocket, would you ???? Then why would you intentionally make contact with Hinault unless you absolutely had to ??? (ick)



Oh.... Larry in the french national jersey..... uh, whoopee
