    Thanks for the tip, great to see our images being used!
  • Photos of the Past said:
    Such a classic shot - all the elements that would make up this shot would still be there in in the same shot today. What I particularly like though is that everything man made - the bike, the car, the motorcycle, even the road surface - has moved on; and yet everything natural - the mountains, the cyclist's physique, and most notably his facial expression - would simply be unchanged.

    the background suggests it was taken from the 'granges du Galibier'

    PhilippeF's suggestion, and note added on the image, look to be spot on. Check Google Street View and Maps - maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&safe=off&client=fire... - the mountain range appears more distant in teh Street View image (wider angle lens?) but there is no mistaking the rocky ridge top-right.

    Was hij niet degene die in het ravijn viel? Zijn vrouw zit zo bezorgd te luisteren.
  • Nationaal Archief said:
    Hij viel inderdaad negen jaar eerder, op 18 juli 1951, in het ravijn (tijdens de afdaling op de Col d’Aubisque), -één dag nadat hij met een etappezege in de Pyreneeën de gele trui veroverde. Op de beeldbank van Spaarnestad Photo staat een foto waarop te zien is dat hij, nauwelijks gewond, met aan elkaar geknoopte fietsbanden omhoog werd gehesen: www.spaarnestadphoto.nl/index.php?option=com_memorix&...
