De paden waar Fausto Coppi over koerste zijn plat getreden. Van de voormalige Campionissimo is dan ook een boekenkast vol geschreven. Deze blog waagt zich daar ook niet aan of het moet deze krabbel in de kantlijn van het wielrennen zijn. Om z’n levenswijze én z’n palmares is de man een cultheld geworden. Ook voor deze blogger die een aantal jaar geleden tijdens een roadtrip door Noord-Italië…

sometimes I think of when astronauts come back to earth and because they’re not poets they don’t have the words to describe what they just experienced and to me it’s like when cyclists are asked how their day was and they just say ‘yeah good legs’
#‘you just climbed the col du tourmalet with nothing but the strength of you and your bike and the sheer belief that you could#with the belief that doing this is incredibly significant and life affirming#you devote so much of your life to being able to do this#how was it?’#‘good day yeah great display from everyone’#is the increasingly scientific approach to sport and athletes bodies impeding the sense of wonder at what they do#is it explaining it away?#potentially#i know this also their jobs and they have to be focused#and so awe is really reserved for incredible performances see mathieu cx season#is awe and wonder concurrent with athletic success?#many thoughts

Pic du Pleiades
Image Credit & Copyright: Jean-Francois Graffand
Explanation: Near dawn on November 19 the Pleiades stood in still dark skies over the French Pyrenees. But just before sunrise a serendipitous moment was captured in this single 3 second exposure; a bright meteor streak appeared to pierce the heart of the galactic star cluster. From the camera's perspective, star cluster and meteor were poised directly above the mountain top observatory on the Pic du Midi de Bigorre. And though astronomers might consider the Pleiades to be relatively close by, the grain of dust vaporizing as it plowed through planet Earth's upper atmosphere actually missed the cluster's tight grouping of young stars by about 400 light-years. While recording a night sky timelapse series, the camera and telephoto lens were fixed to a tripod on the Tour-de-France-cycled slopes of the Col du Tourmalet about 5 kilometers from the Pic du Midi.
