It's nothing short of amazing that someone who was at the top of the sport over 20 years ago is still winning titles.
Late bloomers are one thing (and amazing in their own right), but I don't know of anyone, in any sport, who's had a career like Jeannie Longo's.

From the article:
She is definitely one in a million and will probably continue to make headline news well into her 80's.She most likely would have won more national time trial titles but they were only introduced to the women’s programme in 1995.
