COLOMBIAN NATIONAL TEAM (LA GRAN VÍA) 1984

"The Colombians arrived in France without bicycles or even jerseys and Vitus/Mavic hastily supplied them with stock Vitus 979s with Tout Mavic components, so off the shelf and quickly procured that several were not even in appropriate frame sizes. The Castelli purple and red jerseys, which bore no relationship to the national colours they rode for, came from a local cycle shop. It all had the markings of a local club ride up against the icon of French Cycling, Bernard Hinault who was the favourite from the beginning. However, in the fourth day of the tour when the mountain stages began, the Colombians astonished, surprised and dominated with Rodriguez in first place, Ramirez in second and Wilches in four with Hinault in... seventh. Although Rodriguez was forced to retire in the 7th stage, it set up a great duel the next day between Hinault and Ramirez with the Colombian winning the stage and the race the following day by 27 seconds. With French bicycles, the Colombians had beat the hero of French cycling and thrust themselves onto the winner's podium and the Continental peloton where they would thrive for much of the decade."
