Cadel Evans treated like a hero!

The 2011 Le Tour de France winner Cadel Evans is FIRST Australian to ever win the TDF, and only the THIRD non-European to win the tour.

Looking forward to seeing custom paint schemes for the Australian Champ from BMC-Racing in this upcoming year.

Thomas Voeckler and his custom Colnago C59 Italia

This is a great photo of Thomas Voeckler of Team Europcar on his custom Colnago C59 Italia.

Voeckler was awarded this custom C59 Italia after taking over the yellow jersey of Le Tour de France this past Sunday. Ernesto Colnago did the final inspection himself on this frame, it doesn't get anymore VIP than that.

Colnago Le Tour de France Special - Team Europcar Thomas Voeckler C59 Italia

Colnago is super excited to see one of their sponsored teams (Team Europcar) to be on the podium, and in a Yellow Jersey no less. To celebrate this joyful occasion, they decided to make a special edition Colnago C59 Italia for the yellow jersey winning Thomas Voeckler. *Photos courtesy of Bikeradar.com*

Colnago's marketing manager Alessandro Colnago who is the grandson of Ernesto gave a small insight to how much effort it was to make this frame in time for tomorrow's stage of Le Tour de France.
