Jerry: I find it hard to blame Ocana's bike for the accident in '72. The account I read noted that Merckx fell at the same spot and continued on. Then Ocana crashed. The guy who hit Ocana (as Ocana was in the process of getting up) also crashed at the same spot. I recommend that the jury find Ocana's bike "100% not guilty". Brad StockwellPalo Alto
