Sylvain Coulon is a French cycling fan who started collecting cycling jerseys back in 1996 when he bought a Banesto jersey, the team of his favourite cyclist Miguel Indurain. The following year, he was given a signed jersey from Emmanuel Hubert of the GAN team.
The 36 year-old, who lives in a small village in Eastern France has since built up a really impressive collection of jerseys. He refuses to sell or swap any of his jerseys, and his collection now numbers over 1,200. He has jerseys from many of the biggest names in the sport including Eddy Merckx and Jacques Anquetil.
Some of the jerseys are just regular team jerseys, others are classification leaders jerseys from various races or national champions jerseys.
You can see his full collection here: http://sylvain-coulon.pagesperso-orange.fr/index.html but below is a selection from his massive collection.
