Fausto Coppi




I recently used this picture of Fausto Coppi, on the right, as my cover photo on my facebook page Racer's Edge Boards and Bikes.  Fausto Coppi is considered to be one of the greatest cyclists of all time. Won the Tour de France twice, the Giro d'Italia five times. He was world champion, won Paris-Roubaix as well as La Flèche Wallonne.

I've compiled some links for those interested in Coppi's life and career.

    Came across your blog when I was googling for Fausto Coppi when I wrote about the Giro d'Italia fun facts. You have some very interesting links shared about the legend himself. If you're interested in reading the fun facts, here it is. https://www.thegeekycyclist.com/pro-cycling/giro-d-italia-facts/
