🐓 La Vie Claire on the Col du Granon – Hinault’s Final Charge
Few images are as striking as Bernard Hinault powering up the high mountains in his geometric La Vie Claire jersey. During the mid-80s, he and Greg LeMond fought both rivals and each other across the Alps. Their duel over the Col du Granon and Alpe d’Huez still echoes through cycling history.
Iconic because:
– Represents one of the most famous team rivalries
– A masterpiece of design and drama
– Worn in some of the toughest climbs of the 1986 Tour
🎯 Pantani on Les Deux Alpes – The Pirate’s Masterpiece
In 1998, Marco Pantani launched one of the greatest attacks in Tour history, destroying the field on a rain-soaked ascent to Les Deux Alpes. Clad in the bright yellow and blue Mercatone Uno jersey, he turned a deficit into a Tour-winning advantage in a single, unforgettable stage.
Why it matters:
– The last Giro-Tour double winner
– Known for brutal climbs and fearless riding
– Jersey as bold as his personality
💪 Indurain on Hautacam – Calm in the Storm
Riding in the understated Banesto kit, Miguel Indurain handled the climbs with a poker face. From Hautacam to Tourmalet, he didn’t explode—he suffocated the competition. His jersey may have looked simple, but it came to symbolize an era of control, dominance, and precision.
🌪️ LeMond on L’Alpe d’Huez – Risk, Return, Redemption
In 1986, Greg LeMond rode shoulder-to-shoulder with Hinault up Alpe d’Huez, in one of the most dramatic climbs in Tour history. He did it wearing that unmistakable La Vie Claire jersey, and just three years later, he’d return in a different kit—ADR—to win the Tour by just 8 seconds.
