Paul and Shane discuss one of the most esteemed brands in cycling, the Italian component maker, Campagnolo. Aside from their near life-long experience with the brand, their relationship was deepened by a factory visit to Campagnolo in Vicenza, Italy this past July. Campagnolo has one of the most decorated histories in cycling. Today they continue to make strides and not only stay relevant, but at the front of road cycling worldwide. Some Campagnolo history: https://www.campagnolo.com/ZA/en/Milestones/historyStory on Campagnolo and Lamborghini collaboration: https://www.hemmings.com/magazine/hmn/2012/01/Strong--Light--Beautiful/3707721.htmlMore on Camgagnolo auto wheels: http://chainslapmag.com/2018/06/iconic-style-campagnolo-group-4-wheels/Tullio Campagnolo biography (and cool image of Campagnolo Alfa Romeo wheel):  http://www.edubilla.com/inventor/tullio-campagnolo/List of Tour de France wins by component manufacturer, including historical images:  https://cycling-passion.com/tour-de-france-winner-groupsets-year-year/Good interview with Campagnolo CEO, Valentino Campagnolo:  https://www.cyclist.co.uk/in-depth/3837/in-the-name-of-the-father-valentino-campagnolo-profileTullio Campagnolo standing beside NASA satellite, 1969:  https://cycling-passion.com/campagnolo-80th-anniversary-groupset/tullio-campagnolo-oso-6/Owen Mulholland on Bartali/Coppi duel:  http://www.bikeraceinfo.com/riderhistories/Coppi-and-Bartali.htmlSome great Campagnolo imagery:  https://www.bikeforums.net/classic-vintage/982910-campagnolo-posters-pictures-info-just-cool-stuff.htmlGino Bartali, riding to save lives during WWII:  https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-27333310Audio on Bartali and the Giro in Jersualem, 2018:   http://www.wbur.org/hereandnow/2018/05/25/gino-bartali-world-war-iiMy Italian Secret, documentary (available on Netflix) that includes Bartali story:  https://myitaliansecret.com/Pinterest is a good place for Campagnolo art, this is just a start:  https://www.pinterest.com/donaldsmcneil/campagnolo-cycling/?lp=true
