If only I was already alive to witness the golden days in Dutch cycling history, at the end of the seventies, with Zoetemelk's victory in 1980 as the absolute height. By the time I "discovered" cycling, even Breukink already had his best days behind him... 
[/QUOTE]Yep, i saw Zoetemelk win the tour, man that's a long time ago, my grandfather was still alive in those days. He was a real "tour nut". He even went to France a couple of times, so he could see the action live !
