Default Longo Turns 50 (Longo and Canins)

Next year Longo turns 50 on Halloween.

Jeannie Longo won 8 stages in a row during the 1987 Tour De Femenino Yodora
in Columbia, winning all but one stage, taking the final GC as well as both
the points and mountains competitions.

The truly amazing thing is that she is still among the top competitors.
That's staying power.

Please rename to Colombia.

We've all been concentrating on the Hampsten victory and
forgetting about tED's other trigger points.

Anyway, perhaps there's a Champs-Élysées in Washinton (DC).

Yeah, none of those top women are handing her victories on a silver platter,
she is still very good at winning races. Winning like you're 20 instead of
50 is highly remarkable at the elite level.

Coors Classic maybe then, say 1985 maybe. That didn't seem like the long
lanky Inga on the end, but then it is.
