Indurain the heaviest winner in tour history. His mental and physical strength in the mountains was insane. We will never see a rider like this man again.

In my humble opinion..Big Mig was the greatest.

Just imagine how these guys would've looked in HD... Absolute beastmode.

I miss those times when the tour had long and hard time trials.

Big Mig is the definition of a classic gentlemen rider. Destroys Lance Armstrong like a parent playing soccer against his 5 years old kid and stays classy. El Rey.

One gets so much more vivid sense of the actual "tour" from this video than from the very sterile coverage of today. There is the feeling of the streets and the hills and sun and sound. Interesting.

"If I die during the Tour de France , you do not give up the race" - Big Mig's father. Rest in peace.

When the world champion get overtaken and 2 one hour record holders get beaten by over 2 min you know you are watching best.

this happened 26 years ago, it was posted 8 years ago, I STILL LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!! Indurain just slaughters everyone on this ride, eats Armstrongs lunch as well as pretty much everyone by at least 2 minutes. The guy was a beast in the race of truth and just a monster as a cyclist.

It's amazing that some people still think Indurain was clean in his 5 tour wins.

That moment when Lance said I need some serious medical help.

I like that 650c front/700c rear wheel combination. Old school tech is always neat to see.

Indurain was a beast,best time trialist ever

Miquel looks like a beast here what a muscular monster!

Qué Increible; Qué "máquina humana"!!!! :)

Gotta love the steel frames.

waouh, Indurain was such a beast!!!

look indurain position, he had the best time trial position of all history

I was there that day on the course watching. What you can only guess at from these pictures is the heat that day - it was well over 35 degrees and if there was any wind movement it was in their face. The roads are tiny in parts and the surface was grippy and the tar was melting and it was far from flat! I rode a bike at a decent level once and I rate this the greatest ride I ever saw at any time.......well this and Boardman's 56k hour record! Though because of the conditions and course I actually rate Indurain's ride that day higher. Now I do not want to even enter into the spurious drug argument but it would be naive in the extreme not to have some reservations about a ride like this in 1994 when EPO was well known and also undetectable. We will just never know who was and who wasn't in the mid 90's. Nevertheless make no mistake, Indurain would give Tony Martin or Fabian or Wiggins a good race over 50k today.

What a total monster against the watch!This was brilliant to watch at the time.Fantastic!Surely Big Ted would have approved of that display of total domination. :)
