Le Vélo de Ghislain Lambert movie

[Rik O'Shea]

If anyone has seen this DVD you'll known that its an excellent movie
and
a wry critique on European bike racing in the 70's. The film pays
great attention to detail in that the jerseys, bikes and equipment are
all circa 1970's - I was very impressed. Given this attention to
detail I couldn't figure out the anomaly that the image on the DVD
package presented. You may need to look closely, here it is...

.... The front chainring, freewheel etc are all on the wrong side!

Dear Rik,

This may be the most blatant example of left-wing spinning
ever seen.

That must be the rare "Chaîne du Côté Gauche" drive! I think Sheldon has
a web-page 'bout it somewhere...
