Ceramiche Ariostea Cycling Team (Italy) - 1984-93
One of the best Italian teams of the era but as the peloton was EPO drug fueled at the time you maybe were unsure what you were really looking at. Ariostea was ceramic flooring, bikes were classic Colnago. Jerseys an accepted icon.
Victories were everywhere and not restricted to just Italy - Flanders & Fleche Walloone (Argentin), Sorenson (Paris Tours, Tirreno Adriatico), Richard (Lombardy) with victories in Amstel Gold, Tour de Switerland, Milan Torino, Emilia & Agostini. The team was launched in 1984 and victories started in 1986 - which coincided with the EPO usage.
