Obllox! All acts of life, including athletic ones, should exhibit a certain flair or artistry. To win is dull, to inspire is ALL!
I'm guessing you've not read his book either..
He inspired me.[/quote]
I was out on the bike for four hours today as a direct consequence of reading a book about Armstrong and the tour just before this tour. It sounds mad but I am an inner city boy & I ride a sprint bike because generally I ride thirty minutes at a time in a succession of sprints. Four hours in the saddle is a very long time for me.
