Normally "attaboys" are discouraged as a waste of bandwidth but I have to go on record in THANKING Aldo for his Pic of the Day series, whenever and however he can manage it! These messages have certainly? been some of the most enjoyable elements of the Classic Rendezvous email list!
Thanks Aldo! (I also love your poetic contributions....)

Pic of the Day?

Chain Oiling? ?
Italian team mechanic "Pinella" applies some oil to the chain on Gino
Sciardis' bike during the 1949 Tour de France. Rear shifter is a Cervino,
same as teammate Gino Bartali was using that year. Note the plastic rain
cape stuffed into the right pocket, (Lam?) brake with adjusting barrel.
