Can you imagine that today? We still had 20 kilometers to go!Ah…hmm…well, yes that is true, even if Eddy Merckx has often reminded me of just that, ha-ha! And Louison said simply, “If you guys ride for me, I’ll win.” And that was that. They are always worried before a big event, until they are in the action that is, and then they are the masters.Because he was always on the wheels. He says, “Raphaël, I have won every race!” But I always tell him, “No, Eddy, there are some races you never won because you never wanted to do them.” Coppi, you see, did something that Merckx never dared to do. He was coughing, definitely not on form, but we had a drink, and then some Champagne, and then some oysters and wine. I would go out on the race circuit before with newspapers and burn them at certain spots to see just where the wind was coming from.

He was also world pursuit champion on the track. But he was also full of doubts. He is just amazing. And he abandoned two!

The number of races he won solo was just amazing. Dès que la maladie de Géminiani est identifiée, sa femme et son frère téléphonent chez Coppi. We really broke it down.

And pretty soon I started working in the bike shop and riding. But us? Me, I preferred to lead my life.

Fausto Coppi meurt le Après sa carrière de coureur cycliste, Raphaël Géminiani devient directeur sportif puis consultant. He had incredible resources.

And the second was Coppi. They finished used up. He just stayed at the back all day, until the last climb, before dropping everyone, including Poulidor. But depending on the Tour route, he can definitely win the Tour one day, especially if like Walkowiak or Aimar he manages to get some time in the flatter stages.Yes, I’m not through yet.

It’s as simple as that. Hij was een goed ronderenner met een oogstrelende pedaaltred. So many big champions are like that. Raphaël Géminiani (Clermont-Ferrand, 12 juni 1925) is een voormalig Frans wielrenner.

There was just nothing to do.

Everything in Clermont was run by Michelin—the supermarket, the school, the medical center and even the swimming pool. We studied weight.

Il dirigea aussi Lucien Aimar, Luis Ocaña, Jan Janssen ou Joaquim Agostinho. I learned to detect the different sounds a bike makes and I learned what noise might be dangerous and what others were not.

Anquetil wanted to quit in the earlymorning hours, but Géminiani persuaded his rider to continue by telling him: “Do you want to be known as a quitter?”Géminiani has never been one to hide his opinions, and he held nothing back whenExactly. It’s interesting but that’s the way it is for so many of the greats.

No, by the time I got to work with him, he was all used up. So you see, it wasn’t just he won a lot, but the way he won.When I think back on Fausto, what I remember most is simply the beauty of a champion.

I beat Charly Gaul and Fausto Coppi in the Grand Prix de la Montagne competition. Il a entre autres dirigé Jacques Anquetil, et est à l'origine de la tentative par ce coureur d'un doublé Dauphiné libéré – Bordeaux-Paris réussi en moins de 24 heures.

But my management refused to come up with the money so he signed with Faema. He is the rider that impresses me the most today.

Amazing! We started with the first skinsuits made of silk. But when he became a Fascist, he put pressure on a lot of Socialists to switch to Fascism.

And I liked being tranquil.

He was unbeatable.It’s funny though, because I got my revenge the next year when Fausto Coppi asked me to ride for him on the Bianchi team.

And Jacques loved that. He rode over 100 kilometers alone off the front.

He won Milan–San Remo with a 14-minute lead! He climbed like a gazelle.

Oh là là! Firstly, of course, he was immensely talented when it came to time trialing. On the stage to Torino, Jan Janssen was in the yellow jersey, but I told Lucien not to focus on him and instead he should focus on Franco Bitossi, an Italian rider who I knew wanted to win in Italy.

If I had been the leader of the French team there would be all kinds of pressure.
