 Yes, I know a World Champion Cyclist. Yes, I handled the medal and yes, it is heavy. This is the medal of Steele Bishop, won, as you see, in 1983. He is a friend and business associate of mine.

Opened through UFRAW, upped the exposure a bit, then in GIMP I cropped it, resized (scaled), sharpened it using the sharpen tool, usm, hue sat to restore the colour of the gold, saved.
