To get to palace of sport it was necessary go with two changes, from Sidorovka to Socgorodok (as I remember a transport those years, spaces and traveling speed... - in my dream I start shake).
Personally, I like more in him is his modesty. I remember, in 1975, one future first secretary VLKSM, and in a consequence secretary of city committee told choking: Imagine? We also did not know that he is in a weightlifting and woo for Alla! As one guy told joke to Alla' address, and Besson approaches and, is quiet so, collar him (style of a speech is saved) and separates from ground. Holds down him and speaks - next time thee will be sick and accurately puts him on a place. That guy hardly in trousers not take shit! Moreover, guy is cool!
V.K. Dorokhin tells, that many in institute did not know about Gennady Bessonov sports career. He did not advance for show itself and successes, in too time, studied so, that there was no necessity to cover him and to intercede before the teachers and guiding of institute. And the graph of training and competing was rigid.
