No comic strip about pro cycling can exist without Cipo.

Cipo would have another encounter with Siegried and Roy in a later Toto.

The tea services and kimonos are a reference to the movie ‘Best in Show’. Sooo obvious, right?

New recurring theme alert: Jean-Marie LeBlanc’s obsession with fining riders for uniform violations.

I had drawn the lion to impress my cat-loving 3 year old daughter. Totally didn’t work. But I was able to slap Cipo’s head on it for this.

Once the season is over, Toto gets really hard to write – as there is less news to react to. Sometimes we have to really get "out there" sometimes. For example, we draw Cipo’s head on a lion body.
