Eric Heiden was at the 87 Tour de France prologue in Berlin, but working as a team trainer, not a rider. And, if Dale remembers seeing a Heiden on a bicycle in the 70s, perhaps it was Eric's sister Beth, also an accomplished speed skater as well as cyclist. The thing I most remember about Eric was that he had thighs bigger than my waist!! Lou Deeter, "Eric's thighs aren't bigger than my waist now", Orlando FL
