The 1982 World Road Cycling Championships were held on a circuit near Goodwood, England.
Andrew Meo (Slim), a young New Zealander was competing in the amateur road race, but unfortunately crashed and pulled out. The following day from the sidelines, Slim watched Italian rider Giuseppe Saronni sprint to victory at the professional road race.
27 years later, Slim had lunch with Saronni at the Lampre team headquarters in Milan with Aldo Colombo, Saronni's mentor. How did this turn of events come about? Read the full story, Saronni, Ballan and I over on Slim in Italia.
