A Bit Precarious
I am always struck by how the team mechanics are able to tend to their charges in the most difficult of circumstances. Here this talented mechanic is more than half way out of the team car trying to fix the radio for Pier Paolo De Negri (Nippo Vini Fantini). De Negri was one of the four man group that scooted off the front of the peloton at the front end of a very long stage. He was joined by Nikolay Mihaylov (CCC Sprandi), Nicola Boem (Bardiani CSF) and Marco Bardiera (Androni Giacottoli).
