List,

Cycle-sport magazine did a small bio on Pinarello a couple of years ago.

Young punks today know "Pins" from the Indurian era, but Giovanni Battaglin rode on them with Jolly in the 70's and finish 3rd on a spanking navy blue Pin in the 1973 Giro (Giovanni finally won the Giro in '81)

"Stars and Watercarriers" has some great footage of a 22year old Giovanni getting his rear-end kicked by Eddy.
