"Pantani- The Accidental Death Of A cyclist" 2014 Available for streaming on Netflix. Watched it yesterday. Starts out when he is a young kid and gets into cycling. But you know how it ends. Some great racing clips. Sad ending, as we all know.

Yeah, very good. After quitting racing in the '80's it was difficult for me to watch racing in the '90's. I missed a lot of the details of those times, so I'm always learning something new. The most telling things for me were that at the very beginning he didn't want to be a pro when be realized what was going on, and how he saw Armstrong as the face of it all. Although the second point is my interpretation of what his mother said a out the shirt.
Seeing him as a kid who just loved to ride, and his emotional breakdown was heartbreaking.
