Cycling Heroes

Joop Ziljaard, Derny driving legend.

pacers are the unsung heroes of track racing, he upped the anti. Having the skill to make the tiny throttle movements so you don't drop your rider, and the balls to go three up on a steep european tracks at 60k+ is something these guys make look easy.

and what can you say about the career of the man he's pacing in that pic? awesome

Didn't you get your derny license the other week? Is it just an excuse to eat loads of pies to help create a good slipstream for the rider?
