LeMond 1989

Since the last mountain stage, it has looked increasingly likely that this year's Tour de France would be decided in the final time-trial, which makes the release of this new Gage & DeSoto t-shirt particularly well timed.

In 1989, Greg LeMond, down 50 seconds to Laurent Fignon, won the closest Tour in history by gaining 58 seconds on his rival in the final time-trial, winning the overall race by just 8 seconds. The shirt is a nod to LeMond's amazing ride, and to his mental sunglasses. Check it and the other Gage&DeSoto t-shirts out here.
