Le Coq Sportif - L'Eroica

 L’Eroica takes place each October in the Tuscan hills, and is truly an enthralling events . More than 3000 riders take part, all on bikes that have to be pre-1987. No carbon, no shifters on the handlebars, but plenty of old merino jerseys, classic steel frames, leather helmets and tubulars worn around the shoulders.
