Casartelli Memorial and Drifter
The Memorial for Fabio Casartelli on the place of his fatal crash near the end of the Col de Portet d'Aspet in the 1995 Tour de France. I actually saw it nearly just from the corner of my eye while whizzing past and thought "Oh wait - that must be the Casartelli memorial", stopped and walked a bit back up to look at it. What a tragic death it was then. And ironically literally just 300 m before the road would tilt up again for the Col de Menté.
