A selection of GCN+ films can be found on @gcn as part of the YouTube Memberships offering

Jon Cannings is an avid collector of obscure cycling memorabilia: from full bikes, to strange aero helmets, and even road signs. But he’s not alone in his obsession. In this film, we visit five collectors around the globe for a rare and detailed look at items from bygone eras. From Miguel Indurain’s hour-record breaking Pinarello to wild 1990s mountain bikes like the Answer Manitou FRS prototype. We learn about how these cyclophiles have come across these items, their significance, and what drives them to keep on adding to their collections.

The German collector at the beginning buys "Eddy Meckx's bike from Paris Nice 1969." The bikes down tube decal has the Tour de France logo on it twice, but at Paris Nice in 1969 Merckx had not yet won his first tour, so why would the bike already have this?

Cannings is next level as an announcer. They should use him in the 'regular' GCN shows.
