I gather that racers didn't keep many of their winning bikes? Is there any important racer from the CR timeframe that has maintained a collection of their winning bikes? That perhaps has changed now as Erik Zabel and Mario Cipollini, among others, have large collections of their winning bikes. Angel Garcia Long Valley, NJ
