A Tribute to a Fallen Hero

This week marked the third anniversary of fallen hero, Marco Pantani. As many of you know, I use to race nationally and always dreamed of one day of racing in the Tour De France.

As with any sport, we all have our favorites and I've always gone for the Italians. I loved Claudio Chiappucci, Marco Pantini (Il Pirat, and Mario Chippolini (The Lion King).

Here is a tribute to a hero of mine, Marco Pantani.

Thank You Manca for putting this tribute together and sharing it with us.
